Top 10 of 1,643 law firms for Permanence Orders, Child Law

Law firms ranked by client reviews

Permanence Orders cover long‑term plans for a child in care where adoption is not proceeding or not possible. The court determines who holds lasting parental responsibility, creating a secure, enduring arrangement for the child’s upbringing. A solicitor develops the case, gathers evidence, prepares chronologies, drafts orders, and coordinates with the local authority, CAFCASS, potential guardians or adopters, and any other involved parties. The aim is to establish a stable, legally recognised arrangement that safeguards the child’s welfare into adulthood.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

The solicitor handles the legal framework, cross‑references the Children Act 1989, Care Planning, Placement and Case Review arrangements, and any accompanying orders to secure permanence. They manage evidence of suitability, ensure compliance with court directions, and oversee the drafting of the final permanence order and any related guardianship or parental responsibility provisions.

James Legg

Tagged solicitor James Legg

James has represented me as a Barrister in the last two court hearings in complex proceedings for child arrangements that lasted two years and with a last bundle of documents comprising of 389 pages. Although he wasn’t representing me for the first three hearing, his knowledge and insight on my case was excellent and what he brought to the Court attention in my last two Position Statements was decisive. His help and idea, to apply for an urgent in person hearing to solve a mistake made by an external agency for a Psychological Assessment ordered by the Judge, was crucial. Without his professional advice we wouldn’t have been able to submit such an important document. I am very grateful that, even though he is a In-House Barrister, he agreed to represent me also in my last hearing, even though it was a Pre-Trial of a Fact Finding Hearing. As the proceeding where taking a high toll on my mental health, with anxiety and PTSD, I appreciated very much his calm composure, preparedness, capacity to build trust and his empathy.
