Top 10 of 4,157 law firms for Alternative Families, Family Law

Law firms ranked by client reviews

Alternative Families covers legal issues that arise when parenting or family life occurs outside the traditional marriage or civil partnership framework. A solicitor in this area helps with fertility and surrogacy arrangements, parental orders, donor conception issues, recognition of parental status for non‑biological or non‑marital parents, co‑habitee disputes over children, step‑parent involvement in parenting, adoption, guardianship and child arrangements. They draft and review agreements, apply to courts for orders, and advise on safeguarding the child’s welfare and the parents’ rights, with regard to court rules and social services involvement.

Where a solicitor protects your position

The key risk is irreversible consequences for a child and parental rights, such as orders altering guardianship or parental status. Court processes, including applications for orders and safeguarding determinations, must be completed within statutory timelines to protect the child and enable clear parenting arrangements.

Agata NaporaPaul Reay

Tagged solicitors Agata Napora and Paul Reay

I had a consultation with McAlister Family Law when I was engaged with another reputable law firm after the situation escalated significantly. During the initial consultation, Agata Napora and Paul Reay came up with a list of things that have to be done immediately in order to prevent the worst outcome. The complicated law matters were explained clearly from the beginning, even though I did not know the process. Paul was really honest, confident and proactive, which made me feel like I was the winner of the case already. Paul and Agata took the time to answer all my questions and made the whole process stress-free. In just a week, we got the maximum result that I could only have wished for a week ago.
