Top 10 of 1,643 law firms for Placement Proceedings, Child Law

Law firms ranked by client reviews

Placement proceedings cover making or approving arrangements for a child to live with someone other than a birth family, usually in the context of adoption or long-term fostering. A solicitor in this area drafts and issues the placement order application, gathers social work and Cafcass reports, and negotiates with the local authority and potential carers. They represent either the parent, guardian or local authority at court, ensuring welfare considerations, consent and timetable matters are properly addressed so a secure, legally sound outcome can be made.

Where a solicitor protects your position

The decisive step is the court granting a placement order or approving arrangements for a child’s long-term upbringing. A solicitor ensures that the order aligns with the child’s welfare, deadlines are met, and all parties’ rights are safeguarded, with regulatory protections and oversight from the court.

Amber Oakley

Tagged solicitor Amber Oakley

I used the services of Evolve Law from 2022-2023. From my first meeting to the end of my court case, I received a personalised service. My Solicitor A.O, was professional, accommodating and supportive. I was relaxed throughout the whole process for someone who gets anxious easily. I was able to get the right child order that worked fully in the best interest of my child. Court proceedings for Child order can be stressful and daunting, but with the right firm and Solicitor, I felt supported in my decisions and got the right advice when I needed it. I will highly recommend using Evolve Family Law for any Family matters. They deserve 5 Stars...

Daniel Bennett

Tagged solicitor Daniel Bennett

From the very beginning of what has been one of the most distressing and complex periods of my life, Daniel Bennett has been nothing short of exceptional. His knowledge of family law and adoption proceedings is outstanding, and his ability to navigate an extraordinarily difficult case with such professionalism, clarity, and strategic skill ultimately led to a life-changing outcome for my family. Daniel didn’t just provide legal representation — he provided steadfast support, calm reassurance, and consistently sound advice at every stage. During moments of confusion, fear, and overwhelmed panic (of which there were many), Daniel had an incredible ability to steady the situation, explain matters clearly, and help me feel grounded and safe in the process. His judgement, foresight, and attention to detail were second to none. What truly sets Daniel apart is that alongside his remarkable legal expertise, he is also an exceptionally kind, patient, and approachable person. I never once felt dismissed or rushed — every concern was taken seriously, and every question answered with care and respect. I would also like to mention Victoria Stanton, whose warmth, friendliness, and genuine kindness made such a difference during an otherwise very upsetting time. Her smile, reassurance, and professional efficiency consistently made dealing with a difficult situation feel just a little lighter. Thanks to Daniel’s tireless work, dedication, and expertise, we achieved the best possible outcome — something that will shape our lives forever. I will always remain deeply grateful. I cannot recommend Daniel Bennett and the team at Whitehead Monckton highly enough.
