Child Arrangement Orders
Zain Legal & Co. – Supporting You with Child Arrangement Orders (CAOs)
Understanding Child Arrangement Order
Child Arrangement Orders (CAOs) are essential legal tools that define where a child lives, who they have contact with, and when. These court orders are particularly important when parents or individuals with parental responsibility cannot agree on arrangements for the child. At Zain Legal & Co., we specialize in providing professional, unreserved legal support as your McKenzie Friend to guide you through the child arrangement order process in the UK.
What Is a Child Arrangement Order (CAO)?
A Child Arrangement Order is a court decision outlining key aspects of a child’s care, including:
- Living Arrangements: Where the child will primarily reside.
- Contact: Who the child will spend time with and under what conditions.
- Parental Responsibility: Determining responsibilities and roles for decision-making.
These orders aim to ensure the child’s welfare is prioritized, fostering stability and structure in their upbringing.
When Do You Need a Child Arrangement Order?
A CAO may be necessary in situations where:
- Parents are unable to agree on custody or visitation rights.
- There are disputes over living arrangements following a separation or divorce.
- Concerns arise about the child’s welfare with one or both parties.
If you’re unable to see your child or facing challenges related to custody or visitation, Zain Legal & Co. is here to help you navigate the process effectively.

Most of our cases are resolved through mediation, avoiding lengthy court proceedings and fostering a cooperative environment for all parties involved.

If the other party fails to comply with the CAO, we assist you in taking appropriate legal action, including:

We aim to ensure that the arrangements set by the court are upheld, safeguarding your child’s best interests.
