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.

Georgina BurrowsOlivia Bailey

Tagged solicitors Georgina Burrows and Olivia Bailey

I had originally contacted Greens solicitors ltd to enquire about representation for changing my daughter's surname. After speaking with Georgina via video call it was agreed to go for further orders in my daughter's case. I met with Olivia who represented myself in court on both occasions and I honestly cannot express how happy and appreciative I am of everything she done for me. She kept me informed on each step and was able to answer any questions or concerns i had. Olivia had my daughter's best interests at heart and gathered all evidence that was beneficial for my case.
