McKenzie Friend Christopher James Coutanche

I provide support as a McKenzie friend and started my career in 1989 helping others in family and public law cases.

My experience was inspired by my own experiences of the family law system and the lack of support in the UK for parents in conflict over child care issues.

The current system can leave both parents financially ruined by the legal expense and practice of solicitors and barristers, my aim is to support your case and avoid such scenarios and give you the knowledge as your McKenzie friend to help you litigate your own case at a fraction of the cost.

Since 2004 i have researched the children's act and case law and relevant information to support my development in family support work. my conclusion as far as the family law system in the UK is concerned, is you don't need a solicitor.

I have assisted in complex cases in the High Court in London" and Liverpool in front of HHJ De Haas, and gained a reputation and experience to undertake all private law issues.

Predominantly most of my work is private law disputes relating to contact and residence and all financial matters

I understand the role of cafcass and other expert witnesses

I also have experience of case management hearings.

I have also a wealth of experience in contested hearings and can support your case as litigants in person and help you prepare your forms for the hearing and oversee the conduct of the case

The Court and legal services act has allowed me to advocate cases in exceptional cases, i have references to support my involvement from Liverpool County Court.

I maintain a high degree of success with most cases supporting parents, with consideration to the sensitive nature of the matter

My paramount consideration in all cases is the welfare of the children and the confidentiality of court documents.

If after consideration to your case, please send a email to eryn04@hotmail.co.uk
