ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT COPARENTING ARRANGEMENT IN UK

What is co-parenting?

Co-parenting, or shared parenting is a form of joint custody arrangement post separation.

It entails that both parents are liable to play an active and positive role in their child’s daily life.

Why opt for it?

Co-parenting can be very beneficial for a child’s mental as well as emotional health. It is also the parenting arrangement most preferred by UK courts.

Legal status acquisition

You and your partner can skip the court hearings if you’ve got a co-parenting plan already sorted. A solicitor can help you come up with a viable plan of action.

Opt for a family law solicitor and have them prepare a legally binding agreement for you.

Reaching an agreement

Usually, the first step is to set up a mediation meeting with your partner. If this fails, then you should apply to the court to make a decision on your child’s residence.

How to make it work?

Put your emotions aside and develop a cordial relation with your ex-partner. You don’t have to force yourself to be amicable. Just maintain a business like interaction with them that stays civil and works for your children.
