In an ideal world, every child would have the joy of waking up to two devoted and loving parents every Christmas morning. Unfortunately, this is not the reality for many parents and children as many parents get divorced and no longer stay in the same home. Christmas and co-parenting might be tricky, but it is certainly not impossible to make it work. In this evening’s session of Legal Matters we talk about preparing for the December holidays as a separated or divorced parent and Claire Thomson, an attorney in private practice at Witz Inc Attorneys in Johannesburg. Claire is a specialist family law practitioner, a trained mediator and a notary public. She is also practices commercial law.
