What Is A Child Arrangements Order?
A Child Arrangements Order (CAO) is a legal document that determines where a child will live, spend time, or otherwise have contact with their parents following separation or divorce.
These arrangements ensure that the child’s welfare is prioritised and that both parties can agree on a fair and manageable plan for the child’s care.
Our child custody solicitors ensure that the child’s best interests are at the heart of every decision, working closely with you to achieve a solution that benefits all parties involved.
We aim to create child arrangements that are fair, practical and in line with the child’s needs and welfare. For more information on what is involved in making these arrangements, you can visit the GOV.UK page on child arrangements after separation.
