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.

Jim Truscott

Tagged solicitor Jim Truscott

...Jim and Jack dealt with the forming of a new company and with that a gift of shares and a share purchase forming part of a divorce settlement (so everything had the potential to be a bit antagonistic between the parties..) but these guys were on the ball, soaked up the necessary messing about but held their ground when they needed to. Great service.
