Top 10 of 1,643 law firms for Seven Year Child Rule, Child Law

Law firms ranked by client reviews

The Seven Year Rule in this area concerns how long a child’s living arrangements or care orders may be considered when deciding issues such as permanence, contact, or adoption. A solicitor practises by reviewing the child’s housing, welfare and contact history, and advises on options for securing or challenging long-term arrangements. They may prepare and present evidence to the court, liaise with local authorities, guardians ad litem, and the child’s family, and help with applications for orders or placements that affect the child’s future.

Where a solicitor protects your position

The decision can shape a child's permanent living situation and future support, with deadlines and potential irreversible outcomes that affect guardianship, contact, and welfare. A solicitor ensures the relevant legal tests are met, evidentially supported, and properly documented in court proceedings, while safeguarding the child’s interests throughout.

Alexandra Goldrein

Tagged solicitor Alexandra Goldrein

Alex, is nothing short of extraordinary. She has been a constant source of strength, offering empathy and support. She is professional, knowledgeable and reliable, in the event I could not reach her she would return calls promptly. I can’t recommend Alex Goldrien and Slater Heelis highly enough.

Danielle has supported me professionally throughout my process from start to finish. She is always on hand when needed and has continued to give the correct advice. I want to thank Danielle for her time spent on my case as she has always gone above and beyond to help where possible. Danielle showed a real understanding in children matters and this allowed us to get the outcome we had hoped for.

Grant Beveridge

Tagged solicitor Grant Beveridge

I have dealt with Grant for about two years and my case ended with a positive outcome. All dealings with Grant (and all at Thompsons) have been professional and I was kept updated regularly and in layman's language too. I intend recommending Thompsons Solicitors whenever possible.

I have been with Sabz Solicitors since 2019 and I must say they are reliable and the best so far. I have just received the best news I was waiting for, my baby's registration as a British has been successful and want to use this opportunity to thank my case worker Talal for his hard work towards this application. Kudos Sabz Solicitors, You have Done it Again.

Beth Sheridan

Tagged solicitor Beth Sheridan

I was represented in a child Arrangement Case by Beth Sheridan who works for Stowe Family Law. From the initial contact with this law firm I received the best service and advice. Beth was fully engaged in the case and she worked hard to get all the facts communicated to the courts clearly. The fact that this case was dealt with in 2021 during the covid lock down period, made it impossible to meet in person and discuss the case. However, I did not feel left out at any point as Beth was always available to respond to emails or telephone messages. Dealing with Stowe Solicitors and especially Beth, helped to give my family confidence to continue with life during a very difficult time when my daughter had just been diagnosed with a serious medical condition. I cant thank Stowe solicitors enough and would like to commend them for a job well done.

Jackie Colbert

Tagged solicitor Jackie Colbert

On learning I was being taken to court after my daughters father had cancelled mediation because he wasn't getting the outcome he wanted made me feel anxious, stressed and very upset. I met with Jackie who put it all into perspective and helped me understand that I hadn't done anything wrong and the situation was difficult. I explained that the request of additional time wasn't something my daughter wanted and that I was there for her. My daughters father moved the goal posts multiple time during the hearing and was very difficult to deal with. Having Jackie and a barrister's support during the whole process helped me cope with the situation and how they represented my daughter and me was second to none. They were straight to the point and kind and always acted in our best interest, which provided the best outcome for my daughter. I don't believe I would have got through it without them and I am forever grateful. Jackie and Tom thank you.

I’m extremely happy with Anesha’s work so far on a child arrangement order that she’s currently representing me for in court. She is extremely professional, very easy to speak to and gives great reassurance which I have needed a lot over the last few months. I would highly recommend her.
