Child protection work covers safeguarding children at risk of harm and ensuring their welfare within families and communities. It involves local authorities and courts when a child’s safety is in question, often under the Children Act 1989 and related legislation, to prevent or respond to abuse or neglect. A solicitor in this area advises on investigations, gathers evidence, drafts court applications, and represents clients in care proceedings, emergency protection orders, and related court hearings to secure the child’s welfare.

Where a solicitor protects your position

The key stakes are protecting a child from ongoing harm and securing a safe living arrangement. A solicitor ensures timely action within court deadlines, helps gather and present evidence, and navigates the care proceedings process, including interim orders and final care orders, always prioritising the child’s safety and welfare.

So just thought to leave a review, a bit late (2 years to be precise) but couldn't recommend a better family solicitors. I won custody of my son 2 years or so ago with the help of Kerry and her team. As a dad it's never easy to get custody even with everything in your favour I know this but I couldn't of asked for better legal advice and help than I got here. Would recommend 100%.

Melanie BridgenMelanie Theakstone

Tagged solicitors Melanie Bridgen and Melanie Theakstone

I contacted Nelson’s on the recommendation of another client and was allocated Melanie Brigden. After the initial consultation I was more than confident that Melanie and of course Melanie 2 could handle this somewhat difficult case! Initially I went with a child arrangement order which both parents objected to but Melanie soon dealt with their objections and the order was given … I went for an SGO order as well and although it’s wasn’t granted didn’t feel it was anything to do with the lack of attention to detail by Melanie her hands were tied by social worker recommendation. This still didn’t stop Melanie pushing in court for the best outcome possible on the day .. I am totally happy my granddaughter gets to grow up in a safe , loving and stable future. I would recommend the two Melanie’s and employ them again in a minute .

Paul took over our complicated family case at a time of intense stress. My child was in a traumatised state and had become extremely unwell, due to ongoing harmful parental contact. Paul identified the issues immediately and understood that my child was at risk. He has worked steadfastly to manage the case with care and attention to detail. Paul has been by our side every step of the way. He prioritised the safety and wellbeing of my son at all times throughout a challenging time. He worked hard to secure the best outcome for my son to be able to thrive again in life and to ensure that he will be able to have a bright future where he feels happy and safe. We literally could not of got through it all without him! We will be forever grateful and I would recommend him wholeheartedly to anyone seeking a personal, thorough, supportive and skilled solicitor.

Andrew Firth

Tagged solicitor Andrew Firth

Andrew has supported me on previous occasions and, whilst he has not formally represented me throughout my recent proceedings, he has continued to provide invaluable legal guidance and support. My case has been particularly challenging. Throughout the Family Court process, Andrew took the time to walk me through documentation, sense-check correspondence from the opposing solicitor, and was even available should I have needed immediate assistance during court hearings. This was also the case through my financial remedy. One might argue that this is simply part of the job and that Foys should expect no less. However, Andrew consistently went well above and beyond what I could reasonably have expected. He not only provided sound legal advice, but also knew when the best course of action was to advise me not to respond at all, which was often just as valuable. He has always acted with the utmost professionalism. Equally important, his humour and wit have frequently shone through. During what was, at times, an isolating and overwhelming legal battle for a lay person, those moments of humanity made a real difference. It is something I will never forget. Andrew is a genuinely decent man, an exceptional solicitor, and a tremendous asset to Foys Solicitors. His experience, judgement and leadership are qualities that cannot easily be replicated. I understand that Andrew is now in the process of embarking on what I hope will be a long and enjoyable retirement. Before he does so, I wanted to place on record my sincere thanks, and those of my children, who now benefit from the security of a robust Child Arrangements Order.

Eilidh  DennyMartha  Thomson

Tagged solicitors Eilidh Denny and Martha Thomson

I am incredibly grateful for the expert legal representation provided by Martha and Edith. They are a phenomenal team of family lawyers who truly understand the complexities of child welfare and parental rights. Martha and Edith are not only highly professional and sharp in the courtroom, but they also show a deep commitment to the best interests of the child. Their communication is clear, their strategy is robust, and they have provided me with immense support and confidence during a very challenging time. If you are looking for dedicated, results-driven family lawyers in Glasgow, I cannot recommend Martha and Edith at Kee Solicitors highly enough.
