For you as a parent, seeing your child going through a family law dispute matter can be difficult and heart-breaking. It can also become challenging for the family, especially for grandparents who seek to maintain a relationship with their grandchildren.

You can support your child by:
  1. Managing your own feelings and opinions, by being mindful of your child's situation and what they are going through.
  2. As a parent or grandparent of a child before the Family Court, you will be affected by your child's matter and would most likely not have positive feelings. Be careful not to make negative comments about the matter in front of your grandchildren; it will only add to their confusion and hurt.
  3. It is important to provide your child with the correct guidance and support in making an informed decision as to selecting a suitable family law firm in Adelaide. We can assist the process by providing dispute services and, where necessary, a referral to an experienced counselling professional.

If you are being denied time-sharing with your grandchild/ren, we can seek an order of court to remedy that.
