Christmas is often a time of stress for families. The effect of being together, consuming too much alcohol or simply having to spend time with in-laws that you do not get on with can lead to disagreements, arguments and in extreme circumstances violence between the parties. This can sometimes lead to police involvement and for some, a complete breakdown in relationships.
Breakdowns clearly impact on the children, who may be prevented from seeing one of their parents, or worse still, may lead to care proceedings for the children.
Whether you are married or unmarried, the decisions that you take at such a stressful time can affect you for many years to come, according to Wayne Hollingsworth, family law specialist at Nottingham legal firm Cartwright King.
Whatever the circumstances that have led to separation or even divorce, there will always be financial issues to be dealt with. Ongoing contact with children for the parent who leaves will also need to be considered. If social services become involved with the children, there will be meetings with social workers and others involved in the case. Expert advice at this point will help to ensure that the best outcome for everyone concerned.
