Top 10 of 4,157 law firms for Child Contact and Paternity Issues, Family Law

Law firms ranked by client reviews

This area covers resolving who a child will spend time with after separation, and cases where paternity affects parental rights and responsibilities. A solicitor helps you assess who has parental responsibility, gathers together the evidence about suitable contact, drafts and negotiates orders, and applies to the court for contact or residence orders where agreement cannot be reached. They also handle enforcement if contact is breached and arrange DNA or paternity testing where needed, liaising with social services and guardians as appropriate.

Where a solicitor protects your position

The stakes revolve around the child’s welfare and the certainty of routine arrangements. A solicitor’s work focuses on securing or reviewing orders for contact, residence, and parental responsibilities, and on responding to any breaches. They ensure the relevant evidence is presented to the court and that the proceedings respect the child’s best interests and any urgent interim needs.

Bethan Tapper

Tagged solicitor Bethan Tapper

Bethan was invaluable when it came to guiding me through the complex procedures of divorce. Getting a financial order was essential and would have been extremely difficult without her help and support. I would recommend Bethan Tapper and Wendy Hopkins Family Law Practice!

Lindsay McKinnie

Tagged solicitor Lindsay McKinnie

I cannot be more grateful to Lindsay, throughout a very distressing time. To say the least I would recommend her 100%! Her conduct was not only very professional, but kind and down to earth. She made my family feel valued and supported. Lindsays communication with us was constant, replying by text, when she was unable to speak directly, giving reassurance when needed. She communicated everything we needed to know, throughly & made sure everything was understood, at every point of her service. At no point did we feel that there were any concerns of neglect, towards us or the situation we were dealing with. Lindsay remained focused and gave us peace of mind. This meant so much & was so important. Thank you!

Chris TaylorZahra Nawaz

Tagged solicitors Chris Taylor and Zahra Nawaz

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Eaton Smith twice now, and both experiences have been fantastic. Chris assisted me with the EULA for my indie game, and his kindness, thoroughness, and incredibly fast email responses made the entire process seamless. Later, when I needed a solicitor for my prenup, I immediately turned to Chris, who connected me with Zahra. She was just as professional and kind, going above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect. She even caught an error in our documents at 8 PM on a Friday and reached out immediately to help us fix it. Their level of attentiveness and professionalism is truly exceptional, and I highly recommend them to anyone in need of legal services.

I have gone through my divorce using the service ms of Calthorpes solicitors and they were very helpful. Even when I was not able to pay all, they made arrangements to meet my needs. I definitely recommend.

Michael Brierley

Tagged solicitor Michael Brierley

Having spent the previous 24 months going around in circles with another practice, it was a pleasure to be introduced to Michael at Stokes Partners who excelled in every sense of the word. From the initial phone call to the final email, his care, excellent advice and efficient service meant much more than words can ever express at a time when the family needed it most.

I would like to thank Maxwell Hodge for their work, it’s been a difficult time and not the most straight forward of circumstances to navigate. The team have gone above and beyond in supporting and getting things to the end goal. I can’t recommend them enough.

Robert Williams

Tagged solicitor Robert Williams

This was an overwhelmingly pleasant experience. Robert Williams went above and beyond to deliver high quality work even with the tight deadline I set for him. It was clear to see that Robert had my interests and welfare as a priority which was very refreshing and encouraging. Anyone looking for a solicitor should seriously use Family Law Partners.

Nicola Weeks

Tagged solicitor Nicola Weeks

Pragmatic but essential guidance through divorce proceedings. It was very important to both of us that we didn't fall out and make a bad situation worse, and Nicola worked with me and my now ex-wife's solicitor to ensure that any queries or potentially contentious issues were quickly and positively closed down. The orders were proposed and agreed promptly and the whole exercise was as painless as it could be in the circumstances.

Helen Cojeen explained everything and answered all questions. She was always waiting at court and well prepared. I got the result I wanted. I would have no hesitation in recommending her to anyone who wants an excellent family solicitor.
