Your options
What fathers can do when a custody lawyer feels out of reach
Not being able to afford a traditional solicitor does not mean you have to face the family court alone.
Legal Aid is limited
Legal Aid for child arrangements cases is generally only available where there is evidence of domestic abuse or child abuse, so most fathers fund their own case. Access 2 Children cannot offer Legal Aid.
Reduce court and mediation costs
Help with Fees may reduce or remove the court fee if you are on a low income or certain benefits. The Family Mediation Voucher Scheme may contribute towards mediation for eligible cases.
Fixed-fee support
Instead of open-ended hourly billing, your support is agreed in scope and cost before any work begins, giving you specialist help at a cost you can plan for.
Representing yourself
Many fathers go to court as a litigant in person
You are entitled to present your own case in the family court. Preparation is what makes the difference.
- Understand what the court will look at: your child's welfare
- Prepare your C100 application and statements carefully
- Know what happens at the FHDRA and with CAFCASS
- Keep evidence organised and relevant
- Meet every court direction and deadline
- Have a Family Law Partner preparing your case alongside you
