Top 10 of 1,643 law firms for Children's Referrals, Child Law

Law firms ranked by client reviews

Children's referrals cover when concerns about a child's welfare are raised and a local authority decides on next steps under statute such as the Children Act 1989. A solicitor practising in this area advises if a local authority or court is involved, guiding you through safeguarding processes, pre-proceedings, and any care or court actions. They help gather and respond to information, prepare statements, and represent you in court or in proceedings with agencies such as CAFCASS. The aim is to protect the child's safety while supporting appropriate family arrangements where possible.

Where a solicitor protects your position

The child's welfare and safety are at stake in these matters, with urgent decisions, potential removal from home, and long-term arrangements. A solicitor ensures timely responses, proper documentation, and adherence to procedural deadlines, reducing the risk of irreversible steps or injustices if errors occur.

Louise Buttery

Tagged solicitor Louise Buttery

I was in a very difficult place for many reasons due to my situation but I gave FLP a call and from the moment I received a callback from George and then Louise, I was instantly reassured and put at ease. Louise was empathetic and kind towards my situation and helped keep me focused to get a strong evidence led foundation in place. She is very good at maintaining communication with me, resolving any arising issues, and keeping me advised throughout the process. It was a pleasure to work with her and very grateful for her support and help. She knows the law back to front and how to best navigate it all to get a good outcome that is in the best interest of the children. She is a true asset to FLP!

Kate BanerjeeLisa Stephenson

Tagged solicitors Kate Banerjee and Lisa Stephenson

I can’t believe I am finally at the end, Kate and Lisa supported me for over two years throughout the most traumatic experience of my life. I ended up in a situation with my children that I never imagined possible but I thank Kate and Lisa for their continued support, professionalism and guidance in navigating this process which at times I felt was completely overwhelming. They supported me through many tearful conversations. I hope to never need the services of Kate and Lisa again but I am very grateful for them being there when me and my children needed it. Thank you.

Michael Hicks

Tagged solicitor Michael Hicks

Michael Hicks assisted me during divorce proceedings and child act proceedings. He is extremely approachable, professional yet empathetic lawyer. My case was complex (divorce, family matters, contact of non resident parent and child) and dragged due to my ex partner being unreasonable. However I am confident that I would not achieve what I did without the help of well informed and extremely efficient solicitor. If I was to use legal assistance in the future Michael would be the first person to contact. Thank you
