Citizens Advice Family Advice
Free practical advice on family matters including separation, child maintenance and domestic arrangements.
Family decisions are hard enough without also having to understand the paperwork alone.
About this service
Citizens Advice Arun & Chichester advises on the practical side of family change, including separation, arrangements for children, child maintenance, and the housing and money consequences of a relationship ending. Advisers explain what you can apply for, what the process looks like, and when a specialist solicitor or mediation service is genuinely needed. Because family problems rarely come alone, the same conversation can cover benefits, debts and housing, which saves telling the story several times.
