Parenting Matters:
Putting Your Children First
When a relationship ends, ensuring the best interests of your children is often the top priority. At Arrow Law, we are committed to helping you navigate parenting matters with care, professionalism, and a focus on what is best for your children.
Parenting arrangements set out the care for your children after separation. This can include:
Understanding Parenting Arrangements
- How decisions about their upbringing will be made (education, healthcare, etc.)
- Who the children will live with
- How much time they will spend with each parent
- Arrangements for holidays and special occasions
Our team will help you establish clear, practical arrangements that work for your family, ensuring your children’s best interests are prioritised throughout the process.

Our Approach: Child-Focused and Compassionate
What the Court Considers
- The safety of the child and those who care for the child
- The child’s own views (depending on age and maturity)
- The developmental, psychological, emotional, and cultural needs of the child
- The ability of each parent to provide for the child’s needs
- The child’s relationship with each parent and extended family
- And anything else that is relevant to the child
Our experienced team will work with you to ensure your children’s needs are properly represented and protected.

Tailored Legal Support:
We provide clear, practical advice that is specific to your family’s situation, ensuring you feel supported at every stage.
A parenting plan is a written agreement between parents outlining arrangements for their children, but it is not legally binding. A parenting order, on the other hand, is a court-approved agreement that is legally enforceable. We can help you determine which option is best suited to your circumstances and assist you in creating a robust, child-focused plan.
What is the difference between a parenting plan and a consent order?
If you are in immediate danger, please contact the police at 000. For ongoing support, we can assist you with obtaining a Protection Order (Domestic Violence Order) and provide guidance on legal options to help secure your safety. Your well-being is our priority, and all consultations are confidential.
What can I do if I am experiencing domestic violence?
Not necessarily. Many family law matters can be resolved through negotiation, mediation, or collaborative law processes, which can be less stressful and more cost-effective than court proceedings. However, if an agreement cannot be reached, we are fully equipped to represent you in court to protect your interests.
Do I need to go to court for my family law matter?
Mediation is a process where both parties, with the help of a neutral mediator, discuss and negotiate to reach an agreement on family law issues. It is a valuable tool for resolving disputes amicably without going to court. At Arrow Law, we often recommend mediation as it can be less adversarial and more cost-effective, focusing on achieving mutually agreeable outcomes.
What is mediation, and how can it help my case?
If your ex-partner is not complying with an existing court order or agreement, we can assist in several ways. This may include negotiating to resolve the issue, applying to the court to enforce the order, or seeking a variation if circumstances have changed. We will work with you to determine the best course of action based on your situation.
