After speaking to Preenay Chohan yeaterday my situation was made a lot clearer and he has given me some options to consider going forward, in what I can only describe as an horrendous situation I have found myself in. He was understanding and compassionate. And I will not hesitate to get back in touch if and when I need to clarify anything.
I contacted Preenay for help with a non-molestation order and child custody case after my previous solicitors failed me and I couldn’t get Legal Aid. Their service was exceptional. They were understanding, professional, and knowledgeable. I finally got the protection my children and I needed. I highly recommend their services
This is a great option if you do not have the funds for a lawyer. As you are getting the right information that is required for each step of the legal process. Very reasonably priced as well. Preenay is a gentleman and his team are always on hand to help.
Fantastic advice with a real caring attitude, and understanding of my issue. secured my child arrangements order real quick. couldn’t thank the team enough, I will message you again!
Absolutely amazing, from the start off my nightmare to the end the guy Preenay has been there I couldn’t recommend him enough his experience and knowledge is second to none, I would highly recommend his service to anyone he will put you in the right path 10/10.
I can’t thank Preenay enough for everything he did. When I first asked for help I didn’t know who to turn to or what to do and he helped me from start to finish and offered endless support throughout. I genuinely would not have been able to get through everything if it wasn’t for Preenay. The words I write just can not do the help he gave justice.
Found the advice and support got from this company amazing and nothing seems to be to much trouble for them, I liked them due to having good sound ethics and also understanding my situation as well as a good understanding of the law and translating it in to terms I could understand.
After being under a lot of stress and not really sure where to turn. I messaged McKenzie friends and Preenay called me, he listend to everything that was going on and gave me some very useful advice. He is very responsive at replying to me and is continuously giving me advice and helps me with my next steps!

Child custody refers to decisions about where your child lives and who is responsible for their upbringing. In the UK, family courts prioritise the child’s welfare when deciding custody. Factors like the child’s age, needs, and relationship with each parent are considered. We can guide you on presenting a strong case that highlights what’s best for your child.
A Child Arrangement Order (CAO) sets out where your child lives, who they spend time with, and how often. If you and the other parent can’t agree, applying for a CAO is the next step. We’ll help you complete and submit the application and explain what happens next.
Yes, you can apply to vary a court order if circumstances have changed. This could include a new job, relocation, or changes in your child’s needs. We’ll guide you on how to request these changes.
Yes! Fathers have the same rights as mothers when it comes to child custody. UK law focuses on the child’s welfare, not the parent’s gender. If you’re a dad looking to spend more time with your child or seeking full custody, we can help you build a strong case to present in court.

Not necessarily. Many parents choose McKenzie Friends because we offer the same expertise without the high costs. We provide all the guidance you need to represent yourself effectively in court.
Going to court isn’t mandatory if you both agree on child custody. However, for added security, it’s highly recommended to formalise your agreement with a legal “consent order.” This ensures both parties are legally bound by the agreed-upon arrangements.
You’ll need documents like your child’s birth certificate, school certificates (if applicable), proof of your income, living arrangements, and any records of communication with the other parent. We’ll review your documents and ensure everything is ready for court.
Preparing for court can be stressful, but we’re here to help. We’ll assist you in organising your documents, preparing strong witness statements, and going through what the judge might ask. With our support, you’ll feel ready and equipped to present your case confidently.
