Hi all, new here
As the title says... 50/50 and Equal Care, the differences between then and exactly what contributes to equal care. Is it just the number of nights spent at each parents 'has' to be equal?
thanks in advance
i asked my barrister the same question and he said that 50/50 shared care does not necessarily mean completely equal number of nights and shared care. it looks good on paper, and lets both parents know they are on equal footing. and also child maintenance does not have to be paid in such circumstances.
Thanks for the reply.
So if the two parents cant agree then, you go to court and a judge does essentially?
hi,
in court your given opportunities to reach agreement, e.g lawyers running back and forth between both parties, trying to hammer out an agreement. thats if your both represented by barrister/solicitors. this can drag on for 2 hearings, maybe more, but in most cases gets to 3rd final hearing. so whatever you can't agree on, then judges step in.
We’re taking a break for the bank holiday weekend
Thanks for visiting DAD.info!
