Remaining of a child with a caregiver


What deadlines must be paid attention to?

You do not have to observe any deadlines.

How long does it take to process

The processing time depends on the individual case. The court hearing should be held within one month of the initiation of the proceedings at the latest.

What are the costs?

The caregiver may incur court costs and - in the case of legal representation, for example - extrajudicial costs. The caregiver is only obliged to pay court costs if the court orders the caregiver to pay the court costs in full or in part. If the legal requirements are met, you will be granted legal aid upon application.
