Unmarried parents can apply for orders for financial provision for their children including lump sums, transfer or settlement of property (usually reverting to the other parent when the children leave home) and child maintenance (if the paying parent’s income exceeds the Child Maintenance Service maximum assessment). These claims take into account factors such as the parents’ incomes and capital and the child’s needs. Our Unmarried Couples Finance Team is perfectly positioned to achieve the best outcome for you and your children – please contact us for more detailed advice.
