Help Guides

As a litigant in person who struggled through a traumatic child custody battle of four children and then continued the struggle of raising them as a single parent I once asked myself the question ‘what would have helped me most during this time?’.

The overwhelming answer was something similar to this I AM L.I.P education and child matters website. If only it had been around for me to use when i needed it. 

I created this website and these help guides as I would have wanted them at the time. What I felt I needed most was a website where – 

• All the information about every aspect of child proceedings was available in one site like a reference guide.

• All the information was written in simple sentences for me to grasp instantly.

• The information wasn’t too detailed or complicated to understand and I felt empowered to attempt a process.

• I was given the step by step procedures of doing certain things.

• I was given an insight into what to expect, what really happens and what I can do when certain situations arise so I can deal with them with confidence.

• And finally, I had access to knowledge and information on many child matters and issues such as education, safeguarding and discipline to name a few all in one place.

Our help guides 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10  are complete breakdowns of child proceedings in the family court where they are heard. Child proceedings involves many forms, applications, things to think about, decisions to be made, steps to be taken and it is easy to get lost and overwhelmed. These help guides will help you. 

Our help guides 1, 2, 3, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, and 18 provide knowledge and information on many child matters you may face.
