Child Arrangements Applications, Responses and Disputes
Whether you are applying for a child arrangements order, responding to an application, or dealing with contact that has suddenly stopped — get clear, practical guidance and support throughout the process.
Child Arrangements Support — How We Help
C100 Application Help
The C100 is the form used to apply for a child arrangements order. We help you complete it accurately — covering the required MIAM certificate, your proposals, and any urgent considerations.
Child Contact Has Stopped
If the other parent has stopped contact without a court order in place, or is breaching an existing order, we explain your options and help you take the right steps urgently.
Responding to a C100 Application
If you have been served with a child arrangements application, you have the right to respond. We help you prepare a clear, child-focused response that presents your position effectively.
First Hearing (FHDRA) Preparation
The First Hearing Dispute Resolution Appointment sets the tone for your entire case. We prepare you for exactly what to expect — including Cafcass attendance, the questions you'll face, and how to present your proposals.
Throughout the Process
From the C100 application through to a Final Hearing, child arrangements cases can take many months. We support you at every stage — hearings, statements, Cafcass, and more.
