Where children are involved, reaching a resolution as to their living arrangements is without question the most difficult and emotional aspect of a relationship breakdown.
Most parents are able to reach amicable arrangements with each other as to what is best for their children, but unfortunately, a number of parents are unable to do so, and require the assistance of a family lawyer.
Oner Family Law ensures that when attempting resolution of disputed children’s issues, the children’s best interests are always the paramount consideration.
There are many misconceptions out in the public with regard to the living arrangements of children. For example, some parents believe that upon separation, the law automatically states that children are to live for equal periods of time with each parent. That is not the case. Recent amendments to the Family Law Act have simplified the factors that must be taken into account when considering what living arrangements are in the children’s best interests.
Oner Family Law can assist with providing accurate advice as to the law surrounding children’s living arrangements, and how to properly document children’s arrangements once agreed upon.
