A Reasonable Custody Agreement is essential when parents separate or divorce and need to establish clear, legally-binding arrangements for their children's care. This document, governed by English and Welsh law, typically includes detailed provisions for residence, contact schedules, decision-making authority, and specific arrangements for education, healthcare, and holidays. It must align with the Children Act 1989 and related legislation, ensuring the child's welfare remains the paramount consideration. The agreement can be used independently or as part of broader divorce proceedings, and can be modified as circumstances change or children's needs evolve.
