"A Schedule 1 order sets up a structure for a family’s home, often for many years. If care is not taken over the arrangements, the consequences can be very significant: from ongoing disputes, to unexpected tax consequences, to the practicality of who pays for a new boiler when it breaks in the middle of winter."

Writing for the Financial Remedies Journal, Russell-Cooke partners discuss the provisions contained in the Children Act 1989 Schedule 1. Schedule 1 focuses on financial provision for children during a separation, particularly when property disputes occur.
