In this episode, Natasha Slabas, Family Partner at DMH Stallard and based in their London office, explains the key principles and framework underpinning child maintenance claims.
This is a broad topic, so this episode only deals in part and mainly focuses on the Child Maintenance Service's role and the reported case CB v KB [2019] EWFC 78, which in some ways has created more difficulties when assessing the court's discretion in determining 'top up' orders.
Natasha has been working exclusively in Family Law for 10 years, with a plethora of experience in all types of family related problems. She was made Partner at her former role at Sears Tooth in November of 2019.
