Top 10 of 1,643 law firms for Adoption and Special Guardianship, Child Law

Law firms ranked by client reviews

This area covers adoption, which ends the legal parent–child relationship and creates a new permanent status for a child, and special guardianship, which grants long‑term parental rights without full adoption. A solicitor helps with court applications for adoption or Special Guardianship Orders, drafts and files petitions, prepares evidence and welfare reports, coordinates with local authorities and birth relatives, and represents the client at hearings in the family court under the Adoption and Children Act 2002 and related legislation.

Where a solicitor protects your position

The decisive steps involve court orders that permanently shape the child’s upbringing and legal rights. A solicitor ensures timely, properly evidenced applications, monitors consent requirements, and navigates any implications for inheritance, contact, and parental responsibilities. Delays or errors can affect the child’s future stability and the family’s legal position.

Thanks to James Pantling-Skeet and Daisy Fox-Clarkin at Boyes Turner, our son will finally be able a attend an amazing school, that can cater for both his academic and his complex medical needs. It wasn't an easy journey, but we feel our son has now got access to support that will enable him to prosper. Their knowledgable, efficient and caring support helped us through this stressful time. We can thoroughly recommend Boyes-Turner for any EHCP support.
