Contact us today to get your expert CSA legal advice
Established in 1996, we are the UK’s leading child support specialists dealing in child support casework, advice and child maintenance tribunals. We are here to help parents deal with the many problems that can arise from Child Support Agency involvement. Over the last 16 years we have represented many people either with day to day case management or at Upper Tribunal via appeal to the First Tier Tribunal. Our expertise in the field of Child Support legislation has resulted in our advice lines becoming the leading hub in providing advice to other law firms, MPs surgeries for constituents and other advice agencies dealing with Child Support.
Why Choose Us?
There are a number of internet sites that offer free support but most advice given is based upon individual member’s personal experiences. This can be very dangerous and very costly for parents who have CSA problems. You would never go to the bakers if you needed advice about a medical problem, so why take advice from a member of the general public about child support, in particular when the wrong advice could result in losing your home or your liberty. All our advice is based on sound legal understanding of the Child Support Act and the associated legislation along with current Government policy in relation to the three child support schemes.
We dont just give advice about your situation, we help you take ownership of the situation by helping you understand how the calculation is made. We can help you to manage your Child Support Arrears or help recover Child Support Arrears. We can represent you at any level of the CSA Appeals process or for those difficult and complex cases take over the day to day running via our case management service. If you have a CSA problem then we can help.
You don't need to pay the new CSA Charges
On 20th April 2012 Durham Legal Services launched its Footprint Private Maintenance Agreement service, in order to help parents reach a private agreement away from the CSA and in particular the surcharges they will soon introduce.
To date we have now helped 84 couples reach a private agreement. We feel child support payments should go to the children they are intended for and not the government. Please visit our site by using the link below and do the right thing for your child.
Let us help you take the first footstep
towards regular child maintenance payments
