Welcome my name is Christopher James Coutanche
Testimonial reference page
With remarkable achievements including a well-established case in the Supreme Court London in 2012 known as the voice of a child and referred to by professionals and Judges as case law [as seen in the link below] this case highlights the issues to strengthen children's rights in family cases, and this gives an understanding to the importance of choosing the right kind of help that's going to make a difference, One key aspect I have considered over the years is it necessary to have someone at court with you, and can it be managed other ways, thus keeping your funds saved for more significant hearings
My role is to assist parents who need support with the more complex and highly sensitive children cases in private law proceedings, I can assist you with for example allegations of parental alienation, and leave to remove a child from jurisdiction, and the importance of understanding the complex legal avenues relating to international recognition.
I have 27 years plus experience and successfully completed over 5000 cases with remarkable outcomes in helping parents, I have worked alongside families fathers and both parents matter and come recommended from child services departments, my service will save you time and endless costs, to then re-establish child contact in a safe environment, and I welcome both parents and grandparents applications.
Unlike some services motivated by fees, im not a buisness and focus on your needs I do not charge for advice relating to a child at risk of significant harm, and if your case also needs an urgent domestic violence application, I will provide complete free guidance.
I also believe that I can help you complete your cases at half the costs of any competing services without compromise

I am so glad I was able to find Chris, his knowledge and skills far exceeded my experience with well know solicitors. I built such a positive relationship with Chris and a major plus he not only educated me, he was able to accurately predict issues and bumps in the journey I will face in my year long case to a T. The time, care, honesty and still manages to be available every step of the way is unmatched. I highly recommend Chris, I was an alienated father, with Chris not only I got the outcome I wanted, I didn’t have to burn a whole in my pocket. I can humbly say if your are going through court and you want a honest, diligent, cost effective and an all round great person? Give Chris a call now it doesn’t matter what stage you are at just call.

Chris Coutanche is a beacon of hope to my family. Before finding Chris my options appeared limited especially when costs are at the forefront and the likelihood of a resolution seemed impossible. Chris’s experience shone through within minutes of talking, his calm, empathetic demeanor offered emotional support but with his persistence, in making sure he is available for you with his busy schedule is second to none. I can honestly say I am in great hands with Chris and bonus he speaks to you as a human, not as a case number. I am eternally grateful for his service

I contacted Chris after my abusive ex husband decided to take our 14yr old son and refused to bring him home.

I contacted Christopher to help me through a child access court case. I had already spent close to £2000 on solicitor fees and had still not made any progress.
Chris at Mckenzie Friend, was exceptionally helpful in my case. I am a 47 year old company director and my ex-partner was attempting to reduce access to my four year old daughter from 15 days a month to a mere six- on the basis that my daughter became tired when she stayed with me. This was completely untrue and it was confirmed by my daughter’s school. However, proving that this was the case was tricky and having experienced a strong degree of bias/ prejudice in favour of her mother in the public arena, I turned to Mackenzie Friend for assistance. Chris was exceptionally knowledgeable about the law surrounding my case and gave me some excellent advice ranging from “what if” scenarios to what to wear in court. Most importantly, Chris was a superb listener- which allowed him to become very knowledgeable about my case, and from my own perspective it was very therapeutic to have someone who was willing to listen to my problem and suggest solutions. He also made himself available at all times (despite obviously having a heavy workload) and responded quickly to my questions. Chris has a wealth of experience having attended court on a regular basis and an exceptionally sound knowledge of the law. I can happily say that I won my case with Chris’s help for a fraction of the costs of using a lawyer. I thoroughly recommend Chris and will use him again in future should the need arise.
Thanks again for your valuable help.

I have used Chris recently on my own case recently. I would suggest him to anyone stuck in the minefield that is the uk family court system. Chris managed to turn my case round in the right direction in a matter of a few months after three years. Chris is child focused, and his knowledge of the court system is is beyond that of some of the so called solicitors that I have used in the past.
