Can social media posts be used against you in Family Court?

The answer is yes.

What you share online may become relevant in family court proceedings, particularly where posts, photographs or comments relate to disputed issues or a child’s welfare.

Even posts shared privately or subsequently deleted may be available as evidence if they have been saved or screenshotted.

If you’re going through a separation or involved in family proceedings, it’s important to think carefully about what you share online.

A moment of frustration could have consequences later.

At Avery Naylor Solicitors, our experienced family law team provides advice and support to individuals and families navigating separation, child arrangements and family court proceedings.

There has been a lot of discussion on social media recently around safeguarding and Local Authority involvement with families. But what does that involvement actually mean for a parent?

Children’s Services can become involved for many different reasons and at different stages. Importantly, their involvement does not automatically mean that a child will be removed from their family or that care proceedings will follow.

Depending on the circumstances, it may involve an assessment, support for the family, child protection processes or, in some cases, court proceedings.

For parents, knowing what to expect and where to turn for advice can make an unfamiliar and worrying process easier to navigate.

At Avery Naylor, our Care team advises and represents parents throughout Local Authority involvement, from initial concerns through to care proceedings.

If Children’s Services are involved with your family and you need advice, please get in touch with our team.

Can you change a Child Arrangements Order? Yes, but returning to court is not simply an opportunity to revisit arguments that have already been considered.

There is no fixed period that a parent must wait before applying to vary an order. However, the court will want to understand why the existing arrangements are no longer working for the child and what, if anything, has changed since the original decision.

Changes to a child’s needs or circumstances, practical difficulties with the arrangements, changes relating to school or location, or new welfare or safeguarding concerns may all be relevant.

Ultimately, the child’s welfare remains the court’s paramount consideration.

If an existing Child Arrangements Order is no longer working for your family, our Family Law team can advise on whether there may be grounds to seek a variation and the options available outside court.

Can you make your ex pay your Family Court legal costs?

It’s a question that often arises when family proceedings become lengthy or difficult.

Unlike some other forms of litigation, there isn’t a straightforward rule that the unsuccessful party will pay the other person’s costs.

In proceedings concerning children, costs orders are unusual, although the court retains discretion to make one in appropriate circumstances.

Financial remedy proceedings have their own rules. The general position is that each party bears their own costs, but the court can make a different order where a party’s conduct justifies it.

Every case is different, so obtaining advice on your individual circumstances is important.

🐾 Meet Pegi, our (unofficially official) office dog!

It’s International Dog Day, so we thought it was about time we introduced a very important member of the Avery Naylor team. ❤️

Pegi might technically belong to one of our directors, but she’s been firmly adopted into the Avery Naylor family and has become our resident office dog.

She brings plenty of joy to the office, provides a welcome distraction on the more stressful afternoons and, as you can see, looks rather at home in Avery Naylor red! ❤️🐶

Because families come in all shapes and sizes… and sometimes they have four paws. 🐾

Happy International Dog Day from Pegi and all of us at Avery Naylor!

Thinking about recording a conversation with your ex?

When communication is difficult, it can be tempting to press record, particularly if you’re worried about what is being said or want to keep a record of what’s happening.

But will a Family Court actually consider a secret recording?

The answer isn’t always straightforward.

Covert recordings can sometimes be used as evidence, but whether they are helpful will depend on the individual circumstances. And when children are involved, particular care is needed.

Before you press record, or if you already have recordings that you think could be relevant to your case, it’s worth getting legal advice about the best way forward.

What happens if someone keeps making applications to the Family Court?

Sometimes circumstances change and there is a genuine need for a parent to return to court.

But repeated or unreasonable applications can place considerable strain on families and, in some circumstances, may themselves cause harm.

The Family Court has the power to make a Section 91(14) Order, requiring a person to obtain the court’s permission before making certain further applications under the Children Act 1989.

These orders are intended to act as a protective filter rather than an absolute bar to future applications.

If you’re experiencing repeated Family Court proceedings and are unsure of your options, our family law team can help.

AI is changing the way many people access legal information.

Whether you’re trying to understand legal terminology, organise your thoughts or prepare for an appointment, AI can be a useful tool.

But family law is rarely one-size-fits-all.

Every case depends on its own facts, evidence and individual circumstances, which is why tailored legal advice remains so important.

Have you ever used AI to help you understand a legal issue?

We’d love to hear your thoughts.
