Law firms ranked by client reviews

In England, the appointment of a guardian for a child concerns who will safeguard the child’s welfare when the parents are unable to do so or where a Local Authority is involved. A solicitor acting in this area helps apply to the court to appoint a guardian, or to appoint a guardian ad litem or welfare guardian in specific proceedings, and advises on the guardian’s duties. The process involves assessments, reports to the court, and ensuring the child’s voice is heard in decisions about their future.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

The solicitor handles applications to appoint guardians, prepares evidence and affidavits, liaises with Local Authorities, social workers and the family, and ensures the guardian has appropriate powers to protect the child’s welfare. They may draft and submit orders or case papers, gather background information, and respond to any objections or changes in circumstances.

Asia Razaq-Miah

Tagged solicitor Asia Razaq-Miah

I had a consultation with Asia regarding a child related matter. She handled the matter compassionately and professionally. She explained the law articulately and provided very clear next steps. Most importantly, she was honest regarding the viability (or not!) of the options available to me. It’s on this basis that I have decided to proceed with Fullers Family Law. I highly recommend Asia for an initial consultation even if you are sure on next steps!!

Sarah Buxton

Tagged solicitor Sarah Buxton

I have been involved in protracted complex children matters for almost 3 years which have recently come to an end thanks to the invaluable help of Sarah who has been there every step of the way. I cannot express enough gratitude for the exceptional support I received from Sarah and Isabel throughout my case. From the outset they demonstrated outstanding legal expertise and also a deep understanding of the complexities and sensitivities involved in my matter. Sarah took every measure to ensure I felt protected and never left me to deal with difficult moments alone. Sarah was always mindful of the nature of my relationship with my ex partner and went above and beyond to safeguard my wellbeing at every stage. No detail was overlooked and clear, strategic advice was provided at each stage which ultimately led to the best outcome for us. Sarah's unwavering commitment, professionalism and genuine empathy and care made an incredibly difficult process much more manageable. I will always be grateful for everything Sarah has done for my child and I. Thank you for never letting me give up and for fighting tirelessly for what was best for my child- I couldn't have asked for a better team to stand by me throughout this process. I highly recommend Sarah and Isabel to anyone facing issues with complex children matters.

After a bitter break up with my ex partner and having no voice about my children's welfare and wellbeing, many people told me I had zero chance of being given a fair hearing regarding custody of my children. At first I was sceptical and didn't think I should bother, but I did seek advise and approached Owen, White and Catlin, I can honestly say that the work these people do is exceeded my expectations by miles, they were supportive, advise was made clear when I didn't understand and they were thorough throughout the whole process, The children now live with me and are thriving. A first class service !
