Children and parents may have
different ideas about what is in the child’s interests when considering contact
and residence. The law presumes that a child is old enough to form a view about
contact and residence. If they wish to express their view and they are aged 12
or over then their view must be taken account of. If your
child wishes to speak to a Solicitor then he or she would be entitled to Legal
Aid and for advice and also for representation in a court action.
Masters Legal Services have
extensive experience in representing children.
