When parents cannot agree on important matters concerning their children, disputes can quickly become overwhelming. In some cases, the courts can step in to prevent one parent from taking unilateral action. A Prohibited Steps Order (PSO) Bracknell is designed to protect a child’s welfare and ensure decisions are made fairly.
Understanding a Prohibited Steps Order
A Prohibited Steps Order is a court order under the Children Act 1989. Rather than requiring someone to take an action, it prevents them from doing something without the court’s permission. This could include relocating a child, changing their school, altering their surname, or making medical decisions without agreement. Every application is considered carefully, with the child’s best interests at the centre.
