Family Solicitors in Dover

Child arrangements do not have to stay fixed forever. If a parent’s hours change, or a child’s needs change, the arrangements can be renegotiated, and a court order can be varied if agreement is not possible. In Dover, where the port provides much of the town’s employment alongside tourism, family solicitors help parents put practical arrangements in place and revisit them when circumstances change. Solicitors here also deal with divorce, the family home and pensions, child maintenance, the rights of unmarried partners and cohabitation agreements. They can also recommend mediation or apply urgently for a non-molestation order.

Dover, Deal and District Citizens Advice runs drop-in sessions at its Maison Dieu Gardens office. The county’s commissioned domestic abuse support service assists anyone affected by abuse.
