Top 10 of 4,157 law firms for Adoption Order, Family Law

Law firms ranked by client reviews

An adoption order transfers parental rights and responsibilities to a new family, creating a permanent, legally recognised parent–child relationship. In England, a solicitor advises on and progresses adoption applications through the Family Court, gathering home studies, reports from social services, and welfare assessments, and handling consent from birth parents where possible. The work includes applying for, responding to, and defending against related orders, ensuring the child’s best interests are met and finalising the adoption with a court decree.

Where a solicitor protects your position

The key moment is the final decree of adoption, which permanently changes who is legally recognised as the child’s parent and ends the child’s prior legal status. A solicitor helps navigate time-sensitive court steps, safeguarding the child's future and ensuring proper welfare oversight and consent where required.

Pernilla Finnila

Tagged solicitor Pernilla Finnila

This is the second time I have had occasion to use Pernilla on family matters. On both occasions her advice has been excellent, and whilst I truly hope I don't have to instruct her in formal proceedings I will have no hesitation in doing so if this matter does end in court again.

Hannah Stanford

Tagged solicitor Hannah Stanford

From first contact, i received a friendly and professional and also sympathetic service. Everything was explained clearly so i understand the process. Regular updates and communication was received without it being unnecessary and at all times i was given professional and honest advice. Trust with solicitor's is sometime hard, but i was told what i needed to hear, not what i wanted at times. This is incredibly important as you are paying them, so easy to be led along and just get a big bill. It was a real pleasure dealing with them, they made a difficult situation much easier to deal with and i can not thank them enough for all their help and advice.

Lola Goodwin

Tagged solicitor Lola Goodwin

I went to Lola for help, after battling in the family courts for 8 years on and off, to get my daughter's voice heard. I was so stressed and had been self litigating for years... Lola was so understanding, and kind and experienced. Her professionalism shone through . She kept me informed every step.of the way and was able to recommend a barrister to represent me in court. It made the whole process so much easier, and I had a successful outcome for my daughter ....

Julie Munday

Tagged solicitor Julie Munday

Extremely knowledgeable, everyone at Taylor and Emmett goes above and beyond to help. Julie Munday (family law) is absolutely fantastic, her experience in family law makes her the best lawyer you could hope for to represent you. She made sure I understood the family court process, what each outcome could be, helped me to understand all the documents and made sure I had statements that covered everything that I needed to benefit my side of the case. Her advice was always straightforward and informative and also compassionate (a lot of court professionals lack this skill, but family court can be very emotional and it helps to have someone on your side who is not only knowledgeable and experienced but also understanding of the emotional impact these cases can have on parents and family). I would highly recommend Taylor and Emmett and Julie Munday.

Vanessa Gillbanks

Tagged solicitor Vanessa Gillbanks

I found Vanessa Gillbanks extremely helpful and informative, using language that was easy to understand at a time that was very stressful to me. I would readily recommend this company. The charges were advised to me before I started any proceedings which of course was preferable as I was able to budget for these. I am completely happy to go back to Richard Nelson LLP for any future needs.

I'd also like to say the same of Sara Williams who worked for me dealing with the purchase of my new home. If anyone is looking for the best service please try SAS Daniels.
