Family Safeguarding covers the protection and welfare of children within the family context where local authority social services must work with parents and carers to safeguard children. It encompasses care proceedings, child protection investigations, and plans to support families while ensuring the child’s best interests are protected. A solicitor in this area handles applications and orders in the Family Court, drafts and reviews care plans, and coordinates with Cafcass, local authorities and other agencies to secure safeguards for the child.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

The solicitor handles specific care-related provisions, ground rules for safeguarding, and the interplay of the Children Act 1989 and related guidance. They manage court documents such as applications, care orders, and adoption-related orders, and advise on evidence from social services, health, and education. This involves complex multi-agency communication, timetables, and strategy to protect a child within legally enforceable plans.
