We have agreed on what’s going to happen we don’t need lawyers, or do we?
After separation, any agreement that parties reach, in relation to children or property, is not legally binding . Until it is put into the form of Consent Orders and sealed by the court. Even if you enter into a parenting plan at mediation, this is not legally binding and either party can change their mind at any time. For peace of mind and security, engage a lawyer to assist. Lawyers can help with the process of assessing, writing and finalising your Consent Orders to ensure they are accepted by the court. Most importantly, your lawyer can advise you on your legal position. They will be able to ensure your interests are properly represented.
