Daniel Okafor
Daniel focuses on custody, parenting plans and support. He is known for parenting plans that still work three years later, because he writes them around the child’s real week, not a template.

Profile
Daniel joined Hartwell in 2015 and became a partner in 2019. His practice centres on children: custody, parenting time, relocation and child support.
He spends the first meeting asking about school runs, sports, grandparents and bedtimes, because a parenting plan that ignores the real week tends to come back to court. When a case does need a judge, he prepares it thoroughly and early.
How he works
Daniel answers client messages within one working day, writes every plan in plain English and explains each option with its likely cost before you decide.
