Unmarried Parties - Financial Provision for Children

Glanvilles have a wide range of skills when it comes to dealing with children and finances. Our solicitors pride themselves on their expert knowledge and practical approach which is required when dealing with financial provision for children.

Married and unmarried couples do not have the same legal rights on the breakdown of a relationship. This becomes more apparent when there are children who need to be provided for and there is a dispute about the family home.

Child Support

Any issues in relation to maintenance for children can only be dealt with by the Child Support Agency if agreement is not possible. The Court does not have the power to order child maintenance, other than in exceptional cases.

Capital

If the primary carer of the child requires financial assistance from the other parent, an application can be made to the Court under Schedule 1 of the Children Act 1989, if matters cannot be agreed.

The Court can make various orders to include periodical payments, lump sum payments, settlement of property or transfer of property. Before the Court would make such orders, it would have to consider the financial position of both parties. As in matrimonial financial proceedings; full and frank financial disclosure will be required.

"I would like to say what a very positive experience I had recently with Laura...Laura is very professional, yet showed empathy to my situation and provided support in many ways. I had no idea what to expect as I'd not been in this situation previously and Laura explained everything in detail and provided ample opportunity for questions and queries; Laura is obviously very experienced and knowledgeable in her field of expertise....Laura responded to my communications on every occasion and resolved the issue in a timely manner. I would like to thank her again for providing an excellent service. I will come back to Glanvilles should I need legal advice for anything else and will recommend your company to friends and family."

"Thank you so much for providing us with such a swift and efficient service for the second time. You have been invaluable in making the transaction of both properties as seamless as it could be. You deal with everything with such speed, it takes a lot of stress out of the process to be given such a good service through fast responses and actions."
Havant
"We are very happy to endorse Glanvilles and Tom Oliver's services in particular. We found the Glanvilles team to be proactive, well considered and considerate to our situation. Tom took time to ascertain the situation thoroughly and explained the potential outcomes, referencing previous cases. He then formulated a plan of action and we made sure that we had all the relevant documents to hand should they be needed. It was a very stressful time following the bereavement of a loved one and it was worth every penny to have Tom's knowledge and expertise in our corner."

“I asked the agent if they are another online solicitor and he said yes! If we ever move again I'm not selling to someone with an online solicitor, I wish our estate agents had told us of these sorts of problems when accepting offers. Lesson learnt.. local solicitor or no sale! “
