parenting plans

Parenting Plans allow parents to be the decision makers.

A Parenting Plan is a written agreement between parents that isn’t a Court Order, however, can still be taken into consideration by a Court and is often a more amicable way that parents can reach an agreement in an informal but certain way.

Preparing for a parenting plan.

Parenting Plans allow parents to be the decision makers and put in place arrangements for their children that suit their own children’s particular needs, as well as the individual lifestyles of each of the parents.

Our Lawyers can offer you advice in preparing a Parenting Plan, and can assist you with drafting and finalising the Parenting Plan so that it encapsulates all that you, as the children’s parents, wish to include, that will work best for you and your children.
