We understand the use of offshore companies, credit card abuse, nominee directors, the taping of calls and steaming open of post. We know the impact that drugs, alcohol or gambling addiction can have upon a family and how this affects relationships. We understand how immigration status can impact, and advise on Wills and preserving family assets.
We can be utterly tough (Rodney Hylton-Potts’s nickname is Rottweiler”) or charming and “touchy-feely”, depending on what is best for the client. Click on Rodney’s screen on the home page to hear more.

Roughly speaking this come to a maximum of;
£ 300/week for 1 child
£ 400/week for 2 children£ 500/week for 3 children
There are deductions from this if a paying parent has other children in his/her care.
Scale reductions according to 1 child, 2 children or 3 or more.
There are also deductions where the child being supported spends more than 51 nights a year with the paying parent.

Shared Residence Orders
For some time, Shared Residence Orders (SRO) were rare, as it was considered they would only work in situations of close co-operation between the parents.
This has changed and now they are being granted in situations of bitter conflict.
An SRO has been granted to a man who was not the natural father even though the children only spend alternate weekends with him (which is the usual regime).
Judges are using these orders to send a strong message to both parents, that they are equal in the eyes of the law, and that overriding concern is the best interest of the children.
