CHILDREN'S LAW

Within this area of law, the child’s opinions and perspective are taken into account in matters that concern the child’s life, such as custody, the child’s living arrangements, and the child’s right to maintain contact with one or both parents.

We often assist in matters concerning:

• Child custody
• Child’s residence
• Visitation between children and parents
• Cases where the social services have initiated an investigation
• Situations where children have been subjected to a crime or require special protection

In disputes concerning any aspect of a child’s life, legal support can be crucial. If a child can no longer remain in the home or if the social services have initiated a case, we can assist throughout the legal process.

In cases related to children’s rights, individuals may be entitled to legal expenses insurance through their home insurance or legal aid from the state, meaning that either the insurance company or the state may cover part of the legal costs.

Justice Lawyers also assists with applications for legal aid and can provide guidance on the options available in each individual case.

If neither legal expenses insurance nor legal aid covers the dispute, we can also act as a privately retained legal representative.
