Adoption from care covers securing a permanent family for a child who is looked after by a local authority, usually through care proceedings and a placement order. A solicitor in this area drafts and files the adoption application, prepares care plans and section 31 orders, gathers evidence, liaises with the local authority, the child’s guardian ad litem, prospective adopters and any birth relatives, and represents the client at court hearings in the family courts. The process is shaped by the courts’ timetables, safeguarding checks, and thresholds for adoption.

Why this work is usually handled by a solicitor

They draft and file the adoption petition, gather the local authority's care plan, seek the court's consent orders, and coordinate with the guardian ad litem, the adopters, and birth relatives. They attend and represent the client at final adoption hearings and ensure required safeguarding checks and placement orders are in place.

Claire Pays

Tagged solicitor Claire Pays

Claire provided a very efficient and timely conveyancing service regarding the sale of my mother's property to enable us to raise funds to pay for my mother's future care. She promptly and efficiently dealt with all of our enquiries regarding the sale process including the added complication of our original buyer withdrawing. The whole process seemed to run smoothly. I am very satisfied with the service.
