Has your child's routine changed since your Child Arrangements Order was made?

As children grow and circumstances change, it may be possible to vary an existing Child Arrangements Order if the current arrangements are no longer suitable. Our latest blog explains when an order can be changed and the process involved.
If you need advice, we offer fixed-fee initial appointments, including a written note of advice and helpful factsheets.
