General Quesitons
A penal notice is a court order that attaches a penalty for non-compliance with another court order. It is used to enforce specific court orders in family law cases, ensuring compliance with custody, visitation, or financial support orders.
Non-compliance with a penal notice can result in legal penalties, including fines, imprisonment, or other sanctions as determined by the court.
We provide legal assessments to help you understand the presence and implications of penal notices in your case. We also offer guidance on compliance with court orders and provide representation when enforcement or defense against penal notices is necessary.
In some cases, it may be possible to challenge or modify penal notices in family court proceedings. Our solicitors can provide guidance on the appropriate legal steps to take in your situation.
If you receive a penal notice, it is crucial to seek legal advice promptly. Our solicitors can assess your situation, explain the legal consequences, and provide guidance on how to address the issue appropriately.
Financial Related
The process for negotiating a financial settlement can be done in two ways. Firstly, if financial matters are agreed upon between both parties a finance consent order can then be drafted and filed with the court alongside the relevant paperwork.
On the other hand, if matters are not agreed upon between parties and where there is a financial dispute regarding assets and finances, it would then be recommended to go through the court process of obtaining a financial order. This process is generally quite lengthy and consists of financial hearings and full financial disclosure from both parties. Once a settlement is agreed a final order will then be granted.
If Children Involved
If you have a genuine fear that your ex-partner will not return the children back to you or the UK where they are usually resident, we will make an emergency application with the Family Courts for a Prohibited Steps Order.
Unfortunately, grandparents do not have parental rights and therefore an application needs to be made to the court initially. You will need to ask the court for permission to make an application for contact under Form C100. Our team is on hand to support you through such cases.
If you have parental responsibility, our family team can make an application to the family courts requesting a contact arrangement.
Here at Wildings, we would guide you through the process, whilst ensuring that we obtain the best and most effective result for you.
In such cases, we would initially recommend mediation. Should matters continue to not be resolved, we would then advise you on what application should be made to the court to finalise arrangements.
About Your Safety
If you are in fear for your safety or have experienced either physical, verbal, emotional, or psychological abuse, control, coercion, harassment or threatening behaviour, we are able to make an ex-parte non-molestation order to protect you from the forms of harassment above. Should there be an occupational dispute concerning property, we are also able to make an application for an occupation order.
