SNG Legal Group provides expert guidance on parenting arrangements and child custody across Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide, and Canberra. Parenting arrangements outline how children will be cared for after separation, including where they live, time spent with each parent, and who makes major decisions about education, health, and religion.

Protecting Children’s Wellbeing with Clarity, Compassion, and Strong Legal Guidance

​

These arrangements can be informal or formalised through:

​

• Parenting Plans: Written agreements between parents (not legally enforceable).

• Consent Orders: Legally binding agreements enforceable by the Court.

• Parenting Orders: Court orders made by the Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia when parents cannot agree.

Choosing the right approach depends on your circumstances and the level of certainty required. Our family lawyers help parents negotiate agreements, prepare consent orders, and represent them in court if needed. We focus on achieving practical, fair, and enforceable solutions while prioritizing the best interests of your children.

​
