Kinship foster care covers arrangements where a child is cared for by relatives or close friends under the statutory safeguarding framework for looked-after children. A solicitor in this area handles care or supervision proceedings to place the child with kin, negotiates and drafts care plans, coordinates with the local authority and Cafcass, and applies for or against orders that govern contact, schooling, and long‑term permanence. The work is shaped by child welfare policies, court timetables, and the needs of the kinship network.

Where a solicitor protects your position

The decision to place a child with relatives is time‑sensitive and affects the child’s stability, identity and future guardianship. A solicitor ensures correct orders are sought, challenges or defends care plans when needed, and secures protections such as contact schedules, permanency plans, and safeguarding conditions, underpinned by local authority governance and the court process.

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.
