Top 10 of 1,643 law firms for Dependent Children, Child Law

Law firms ranked by client reviews

Dependent children matters cover a child’s welfare when parents or carers cannot meet their needs, including safeguarding, contact, residence and care proceedings under the Children Act 1989. A solicitor in this area drafts and negotiates orders, represents the client at the Family Court, and prepares statements and affidavits for applications such as care, supervision or residence orders, emergency protection and local authority safeguarding plans. The work centres on securing the child’s safety, stability and ongoing welfare within the family or care system.

Where a solicitor protects your position

The court’s decision can determine where a child lives, who has day-to-day care, and whether special measures or supervision are required. A solicitor protects these timescales, evidential needs, and the right to proper representation in a process that may involve local authorities, guardians, and the court. Timelines and welfare thresholds mean prompt, precise action is often essential.

I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Zishan at M & K Solicitors Ltd for his outstanding support during my child custody case. From start to finish, he was professional, compassionate, and extremely knowledgeable. Zishan took the time to clearly explain every step of the process and ensured I fully understood my options. He was always responsive, patient, and reassuring during what was a very stressful and emotional time. His dedication and expertise made a significant difference in my case, and I truly felt that he had both my best interests and my child’s wellbeing at heart. I would highly recommend Zishan to anyone in need of legal assistance, particularly in family and child custody matters.

I cannot thank Terri Anson-Dean enough for her exceptional support, professionalism, and dedication throughout a very challenging family matter. From the beginning, Terri provided clear advice, practical guidance, and reassurance during what was often a stressful and emotionally demanding process.

Throughout the process, she remained calm, professional, and focused on what was most important, particularly the best interests of the children and the fair resolution of the issues involved. I am deeply grateful not only for Terri's legal expertise but also for the care, patience, and encouragement she showed throughout. She went above and beyond to support me during a very difficult period of my life.

Whoever you speak to at SAS Daniels gives you great advice. Everyone works together. They seem to get the job right the first time where other firms take many attempts. The firm listens to what you want and works with you. Billing is easy and transparent compared to other firms who seem to pluck figures from thin air. This firm really understand the challenges of child custody cases and treats you like it’s their own child.

Imogen Peddle

Tagged solicitor Imogen Peddle

From the first moment I contacted them to the end of my child custody case they have been amazing. Imogen has supported me all the way through and I would never have got through this without her. I came from a domestically abusive relationship and she has been kind, gentle and firm with me all the way through making sure we get everything right for the process whilst supporting me. I could not recommend them enough. Anna was also incredible when Imogen was on leave. Highly recommend.
