EXCELLENT Based on 35 reviews Teddy Nicoll2025-06-27Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I was a first-time Dad, thrown into a world of unknowns and anxiety, desperate to continue seeing my Son after sudden no-contact. Couldn’t afford solicitor fees, didn’t have a clue what to do. I urge anyone who needs support for Child Arrangements, or anything to do with these matters to use Dads Consultancy. Lach is a top bloke, with a wealth and knowledge, and I couldn’t have asked for anyone better to support me through the worst time of my life. Always at the end of a message, email, phone call or video call, any time, any day of the week. Personally, I don’t think I could have done this without him. Throw your solicitor fees in the bin, and go with Dads Consultancy if you want to see your child(ren) again. Thank you, Dads Consultancy, from me and my Son.

All the best from us and enjoy those special moments ❤️ steven docherty2025-06-03Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Where to start, I was lost and confused in a minefield of papers, letters, courts. I needed help. I was getting so overwhelmed with everything. I contacted dad’s consultancy. I was sceptical at first, but Lech listened to me. He reassured me that he could help. He helped me so much, the responses to the allegations, the notes, the details that was put in to my case was incredible. I would not have been able to do half the things without his help. He has gotten me through some very bad times, he was there to listen and support me. Thank you. Now onwards and upwards. To a future where I can see myself growing and getting stronger

Thank you for the kind words and the 5 star review Matthew. Thank you for working with us and wishing you all the best in the future. Enjoy those precious moments with you daughter!!! Alex S2025-04-01Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I cannot thank enough Lach and Dads Consultancy for being there for me from the beginning to the end of the process.The court case lasted for almost a year during which Lach's knowledge in social services and expertise made me win full custody of my children.He was there available for the many questions and concerns I had throughout my case.In fact he's helped me save money by advising me a barrister would not be necessary and I have a good chance of winning. A year ago I would not know where to turn or get help and I am so glad Dads Consultancy came across my searches, finally,there is justice for the dads too! Aaron Oliver2025-03-30Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. After a bad breakup with my former partner, I wanted to rebuild a relationship with my daughter. I wanted the court to take control of the situation so that my daughter and I can have a consistent relationship without anyone else preventing it. Before deciding to go to court to make child arrangements, I hadn't seen my daughter for 6 months and knew that the circumstances were not in my favour; so I looked online for help… One morning I stumbled on dad's consultancy website, and I got emotional. After feeling like I was alone, I finally felt like there was a line of support that is in favour of father/child relationships. At first I was hesitant for financial reasons, but I took the free initial call, and it was clear that this company is not about the money at all. In fact, after seeing multiple solicitors for quotations, I received 5 figure quotes, they were clock watching, and really didn't seem to care. I then took the leap and paid all I had into this service. Dad's consultancy has insider secrets when it comes to the family court system. I quickly found that the court relies entirely on a social worker to guide their decisions, so it was a no-brainer for me to have a social worker to help me with my decisions. Dad's consultancy to me was a pivotal tool in navigating this. I believe hiring a solicitor would have been like bringing a weapon to the family court. I have met many dad's that took the lawyer approach. These dad's have similar circumstances, but are still in and out of court trying their best to prove their child's mum is terrible and they are a great parent. One of these dad's has been in a contact centre for two years, he has proved his point about his ex, but still has to go back to court and do the parenting courses to prove he can be a good father! Dad's consultancy gave me the ability to give the court what it was looking for, without being told - putting me at least 1 year ahead, and serious savings in money and emotional wear and tear. For a year in court, I was tested by the court and the social worker, but my alliance with dad's consultancy already provided me with the answers to every test. At times I was uneasy, but I had faith, listened, and executed what I was advised to do and say. The situation went from no contact with my daughter, and no signs of getting it. Along with an ex partner that was not in favour of me having contact. I then applied the dad's consultancy strategy. The ex partner changed her mind after she realised that I am not trying to attack her. The court recognised and appreciated my approach and effort - they voiced this at every hearing. The court's social worker gave me the all clear, after a year of tests. Now I am on my way to have a fully fledged relationship with my daughter: night visits every week (weekend and midweek), arrangements for Christmas and even holidays. Along with my ex partner being open to co-parenting arrangements. I couldn't be more shocked about how this has turned out. I've got more contact rights than I ever anticipated, and it was done very quickly compared to the lawyer approach. Just do it Kenny Price2025-03-29Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Through an extremely difficult and mentally challenging time they were always there to help. Not only answering the legal question and explaining the process but simply being there to reassure and support when you need it. I can honestly say I wouldn’t have coped without their help.

Thank you for your great review Kenny. Much appreciated! Michał Kawka2025-03-11Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I cannot express enough gratitude for the help I received from Lach at Dads' Consultancy. This is the second time he has supported me, and once again, he has truly saved my life. Thanks to his guidance, dedication, and deep understanding of family law, I am still able to be with my daughter and remain a part of her life. Lach is not just a consultant—he is a lifesaver for fathers like me who are fighting to stay in their children's lives. His expertise, patience, and unwavering support made all the difference in my case. If you are a father struggling with legal challenges, I wholeheartedly recommend Dads' Consultancy. Thank you, Lach, for everything you have done for me and my daughter. You have given us the most precious gift—the chance to stay together.

Told to prepare a Position Statement for family court – but not sure what to include or how to structure it?
We’ll walk you through what matters. You’ll speak with us first so we understand your case and what you want the court to hear. Then we’ll either guide you through the writing or draft the full statement on your behalf – clear, focused, and tailored to your situation.
No filler. No rambling. Just a strong, honest statement that speaks for you.
A Position Statement is your voice in written form. It’s a short, structured document you submit before a family court hearing – explaining your situation, your concerns, and what outcome you’re asking for.
The court reads it before the hearing, so it’s often your first real chance to make an impression. A strong Position Statement shows that you’re child-focused, reasonable, and engaged in the process. A weak or unfocused one? It can undermine your case before you’ve even spoken.
We help dads write statements that are calm, clear, and persuasive – without getting emotional or going off track.
Most dads aren’t legal writers – and family court doesn’t expect you to be. But your Position Statement needs to be clear, structured, and relevant, or it risks being ignored. We help you focus on what matters most – with or without us drafting the full statement for you.
Whether you want guidance or a done-for-you draft, we make the process simple and structured – so you’re not left second-guessing what to write or how to phrase things.
We’ll speak with you 1-to-1 about your case, what the court needs from you, and what your statement should cover. You’ll leave with clarity – not confusion.
You can either write the statement yourself with our detailed guidance – or we’ll draft it for you based on the facts, tone, and outcome you’re aiming for.
Once your statement is finalised, we’ll make sure it’s clear, well-structured, and ready to go. You’ll know exactly how to send it – and when.
Most templates and guides leave you guessing. And most generic support doesn’t understand how hard it is to explain your situation clearly, calmly, and convincingly – especially under pressure. We do things differently.
We don’t throw generic advice at you. We speak with you 1-to-1, ask the right questions, and make sure the court hears what actually matters in your case.
“ I didn’t even know what a Position Statement was. Lach broke it down clearly and helped me focus on what the court needed to hear.”
If we write your statement, it won’t be bloated or emotional. It’ll be structured, purposeful, and focused on outcomes – just how the court expects it.
“ It felt like my side of the story, but with all the fluff stripped out. Direct and respectful.”
Whether you’re just starting your case or preparing for a key hearing, we adapt the tone, content, and structure to suit the stage you’re at.
“ I used it at my first hearing and the judge actually thanked me for how clear it was.”

Whether you’re representing yourself or just want to take control of your case prep, we help you write a Position Statement that’s clear, calm, and taken seriously by the court.
Most dads either try to write their Position Statement alone – or copy a generic template that doesn’t actually reflect their case. But this is one of the most important documents the court will read. A rushed, emotional, or unfocused statement can hurt your chances.
Here’s how our approach compares:
Feature | Dads’ Consultancy | DIY or Template |
---|---|---|
1:1 Strategy Call | ✅ Included – we learn your story first | ❌ None – you’re on your own |
Statement Drafted or Reviewed by Experts | ✅ Yes – clear, structured and court-ready | ❌ Usually emotional, vague or off-topic |
Tailored to Your Hearing Type | ✅ Yes – we match tone and content to your case | ❌ One-size-fits-all template |
Guidance on Tone and Phrasing | ✅ Support throughout – respectful and persuasive | ❌ Risk of sounding aggressive or informal |
Delivered Promptly | ✅ We agree a clear turnaround timeframe | ❌ Often rushed last minute or rewritten |
Fixed Fee with No Hidden Costs | ✅ £150 flat rate – support included | ❌ Time-consuming, uncertain effectiveness |
👉 Want a statement that speaks for you in court? Book a free call now and we’ll explain how it works.
This isn’t about overloading the judge or writing from emotion. It’s about crafting a clear, respectful statement that shows your parenting strengths, responds to the key issues, and keeps the court onside.
We make sure it’s done right – with no guesswork and no waffle.
You’ll start with a one-to-one strategy call so we can fully understand your situation and what the court needs to hear. From there, we’ll either draft your Position Statement for you or work through your existing draft together, shaping it into clear, structured language that’s tailored to your case. You’ll get guidance on tone, content, and formatting to make the right impact, with an agreed turnaround time so there’s no last-minute panic. If things change in your case, we’ll be here to adjust the statement and keep it court-ready.
💬 Please speak to us before making payment. We’ll walk you through the process and confirm if this package is right for your hearing.

Here’s what they had to say after working with us:
Still unsure what a Position Statement is – or how to write one that actually helps your case? These are the most common questions we get asked. Straight answers below.
A Position Statement is a written document you submit to the court ahead of a hearing. It outlines your view on the issues being discussed, your proposed way forward, and any key facts the judge should be aware of.
Yes – especially at the FHDRA. The judge and CAFCASS will often rely on these statements to understand each parent’s stance before any decisions are made.
Usually 1–2 pages. It should be clear, focused, and avoid emotional rants or repetition. The goal is to inform the court – not to vent.
You can – but many dads struggle to strike the right tone or include the right detail. We help you say what matters in a way the court will actually listen to.
Yes. After a call with you to understand your case, we’ll write a full, structured draft. You can approve it, request edits, and we’ll make sure it reflects your position accurately and respectfully.
Most likely, yes. Especially if it’s presented clearly and handed in properly before the hearing. A strong Position Statement can influence the direction of your case.

Most position statements are 1–3 pages long. It depends on your case and what needs to be included. The goal is clarity and relevance – not repeating what’s already in the court bundle. We help you strike the right balance.
Yes – usually you’ll be the one submitting it to the court and sharing it with the other party (or their solicitor). Don’t worry, we’ll walk you through exactly when and how to do that, including the format and deadlines.
You can – but it helps to get expert support. A well-structured statement can make a big difference, especially if it’s your first hearing or if the issues are serious. We help you make it clear, focused, and in line with what the court expects.
