Cafcass' top 10 tips for separating families and professionals involved in children court proceedings

The Cafcass Family Forum, a group of parents, carers and extended family members, who have had direct experience of private children court proceedings, have come together to support and provide advice to other families in similar situations. 

They have put together a helpful list of their top 10 tips for separating parents to help them think about how they can minimise the impact of their separation and any court proceedings on their children. This is a great initiative that puts the best interests of the children at the forefront of everyone's minds and I will be certainly sharing these top tips with my clients. 

The Cafcass Family Forum comprises a group of parents, carers and extended family members who have had direct experience of family court proceedings. Their purpose is to help Cafcass to understand how families experience proceedings and to use that learning to influence and improve the effectiveness of practice. This includes working with Cafcass to review and improve information and resources available to families going through the family courts.
