Consent Orders
If you have already discussed and in-principle agreed on all issues with your spouse, Lifelaw provide a fixed fee service to help you to prepare your consent order to present to the Family Court.
A consent order can cover parenting arrangements for children as well as financial arrangements such as property and maintenance. Any person concerned with the care, welfare and development of a child can apply for parenting orders.
