How can I get a contribution to the costs of bringing up our children now I've split from ex-partner? ===================================================================================================== Even if you are not married, you are entitled to support from the other parent of your children. Under Schedule 1 of the Children Act, you can obtain both ongoing maintenance and lump sums towards the costs of bringing up children. The level of provision will depend on your needs and your ex-partner's financial position. If there is money available, they can be required to meet expenses such as school fees and even provide a house for you and the children. As with all our cases, Vardags can use our expertise to get you the best possible provision. If your ex is trying to hide their assets or under-declare their income, then we can use our in-house forensic accountancy team to uncover what they are really worth. We will also help you set out and understand your long term financial needs, helping you and your children get the financial provision which you deserve.
