Top 10 of 1,643 law firms for Section 8 Orders, Child Law

Law firms ranked by client reviews

Section 8 Orders, commonly known as child arrangements orders, regulate with whom a child should live, spend time or have contact after parental separation. A solicitor helps here by drafting and applying for orders under the Children Act 1989, gathering evidence, and representing the client in a family court. They may negotiate parenting plans, finalise orders, and respond to breaches. These orders may cover residence, contact, and specific arrangements, shaping a child’s day-to-day life and long-term welfare.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

What tends to be complex are the differing proposals for living arrangements, the potential safeguarding concerns, and the evidential requirements to persuade a court. The solicitor explains the law, drafts the required documents, and represents the client at court, including presenting witnesses and addressing the court's welfare considerations to secure a stable arrangement for the child.

Zishan Zaman

Tagged solicitor Zishan Zaman

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.

Suzanne Foster

Tagged solicitor Suzanne Foster

I would highly recommend Suzanne for advising during high conflict child proceedings. She gave very clear and to the point advice throughout, answered questions in a timely manor, kept me on track through the most emotional stressful situations, avoided silly arguments with the other side and focused on what was important, managed my expectations and at times hard truths when it was needed to ensure the ultimate winning outcome. Suzanne was amazing in court advocate too and put forward my case effectively. We came out with a great CAO for me and what was best for my young child. Thank you!

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.
