Here at Broadbents Solicitors, we have a team of Family Law Specialists who are adept at forming Child Custody Agreements that are ready and waiting to help you.

Our Main Child Custody Services:

  • Expert Legal Advice and Representation: Whether you are seeking custody (also known as a Child Arrangements Order) or wish to modify an existing agreement, our team provides clear and effective legal counsel. We assist you in understanding your legal rights and obligations while ensuring that your voice is heard in court.
  • Child Arrangements Orders: Broadbents Solicitors can assist with securing Child Arrangements Orders, which determine where a child will live and how much time they will spend with each parent. We help you navigate the legal process to ensure the best interests of your child are at the forefront of any decision.
  • Mediation Support: Whenever possible, we encourage mediation to resolve disputes amicably. Mediation offers parents a chance to reach an agreement without the need for court intervention, fostering cooperative co-parenting solutions that can be more flexible and less stressful for children.
  • Parental Responsibility Guidance: Our team can assist you in understanding and obtaining parental responsibility, ensuring that both parents have the legal authority to make important decisions about their child’s welfare, education, and healthcare.
  • Resolving Disputes: In cases where parents cannot agree on custody arrangements, we provide experienced legal representation in family court. We work diligently to advocate for arrangements that reflect your child’s best interests, whether through shared custody, sole custody, or other tailored solutions.

Broadbents Solicitors - Leading Solicitors in Derbyshire

Although we have been operating as Broadbents Solicitors since the 1960s, our firm’s roots can be traced all the way back to 1794, serving the community under the name of Wilson and Son. Legal partners Blakesley and Booth bought the company after Mortimer Wilson’s passing in the 1950s, and installed Geoffrey Broadbent to manage the office. Our expert, in-house team are proud of the experience-rich history that has placed us at the forefront of the available Legal Services in Derbyshire.

Client experience and satisfaction is our primary objective in every case we undertake. Publicly or privately funded, you will receive a service that is attentive, caring, and professional, and unlike any other in the surrounding Derby area.
