Advice required from respondents.

Hello,

I need some advice from respondents of a divorce please.

Do the statement of arrangements for children still stand if the information in the statement has now changed e.g. petitioner and respondent both have new partners and petitioner has another child by someone else? The arrangements have not been kept to by the petitioner in that the days the respondent is supposed to have the children has not been same as the days mentioned in the document? Do you need to go to solicitor if you want it changed?

Thanks

I would say so, yes. The gravity of what you ask is beyond the advice that anyone here could give you and even if one of the replies were from a solicitor practised in family law it would be hard to pick the correct one out, and even harder to rely on it.

I too think you have to revisit it legally - that's the point of it - it has legal standing until it's legally changed.

We were asked by our solicitor to write a letter asking for structure and inputted the amount of days respondent would have them but petitioner is referring to statement of arrangements form that was signed, yet this is no longer adhered to. I believe we need to get the solicitor involved for it to be sorted properly.
