When a relationship ends and there are children involved, parents typically have questions about living arrangements and financial support. The same issues around disputes exist whether parents are married or unmarried. Parents are encouraged to mediate to resolve matters rather than going to court. Courts make orders determining living and contact arrangements that aim to have both parents spending time with children. Mothers and married fathers automatically have parental responsibility while unmarried fathers must take other steps to obtain it. The welfare of the child is the top priority when courts make orders.
As a father, if you are going through a difficult separation or divorce and contentious child custody battle, or if you are unmarried and need to establish paternity, you need to seek legal representation from an experienced fathers’ rights attorney to safeguard your fathers’ rights and help you navigate Utah's family courts.

Do I need to go to court
regarding the arrangements
for my children?
When a relationship breaks down, typically the
parties’ main concern will be the arrangements
for their children. Questions such as “How will the
Court decide who the children will live with?” and
“What are the children and I entitled to financially?”
commonly arise.
It is important to note that the same issues and
potential areas for dispute arise whether parents are
married or unmarried. Parents are encouraged to
mediate in order to resolve issues and court action
should only be considered if no agreement can be
reached.
On separation, typical disputes relating to children
tend to focus on who the children will live with
and how much time they will spend with the other
parent. Terminology such as ‘custody’ and ‘access’,
or ‘residence’ and ‘contact’ have been phased out
in favour of labels which suggest that there is no
controlling parent and that there is no ‘winner’
or ‘loser’.
Instead, the law now makes provision for Child
Arrangements Orders and there is a new presumption
which states that both parents should be spending
time with their children. The presumption does not
say how much time or in what form but it is as close
to suggesting a presumption of a shared care regime
as children law has ever come.
What rights do I have in respect of my children?
Parental Responsibility (“PR”) was introduced by
the Children Act 1989 and provided a deliberate shift
towards the idea that parents have responsibilities to
their children. In summary, PR gives you the right to
make decisions regarding all of the important aspects
of your child’s life such as medical, education and
religious matters.
Mothers automatically acquire PR for their children
as do Fathers who are married to their children’s
mother. Unmarried fathers do not automatically
acquire PR for their children. However, from 1.12.03
onwards, if the unmarried father is named on his
child’s birth certificate, he automatically acquires
PR. There are also other ways in which an unmarried
father can obtain PR.
What types of Orders can the Court make?
The Court has the power to make various orders in
relation to a child which will last until the child is 16
years old (18 in exceptional circumstances):
Child Arrangement Orders – setting out who the child
will live and the frequency of time spent with each parent.
Prohibited Steps Orders – which prevent a person from
acting in a certain way, such as removing the child from
the jurisdiction of England and Wales.
Specific Issue Orders –giving decisions on specific issues
relating to any aspect of parental responsibility for a
child, such as where they will be educated.
What is the Court required to consider when making
Orders?
The welfare of the child is of utmost importance to
the court. Any questions the court has surrounding a
child and their upbringing must adhere to the Welfare
Checklist as follows:
• The wishes and feelings of the child concerned
(considered in light of their age and understanding)
• The child’s physical, emotional and/or
educational needs
• The likely effect of any change in circumstances
on the child
• The child’s age, sex, background and any
characteristics that the court considers relevant
• Any harm which the child has suffered or is at risk
of suffering
• How capable each parent and any other person in
relation to who the court considers to be relevant,
is of meeting the child’s needs
• The range of powers available to the court.
