Wellington Family Lawyer for Divorce, Parenting and Support
Wellington families juggle busy routines, school schedules, youth sports and community activities, and those demands shape every parenting decision.

Building a Parenting Plan That Works Beyond the Courtroom
A strong plan answers practical questions before they become disagreements. Caroline helps parents plan for weekday routines, weekends, holidays, summer vacations and exchanges. Common formats such as alternating weeks or 2-2-5-5 schedules may fit some families, but no single arrangement is automatically right. The best schedule reflects your children's needs and the realities of your household.
