Top 10 of 4,157 law firms for Child Custody, Family Law

Law firms ranked by client reviews

Child custody in England covers who a child lives with, who makes important decisions about their upbringing, and how contact with the other parent is arranged. A solicitor helps clients apply for, respond to, or defend orders such as a Child Arrangements Order, and to navigate parental responsibility and best interests assessments. They advise on evidence, draft applications, and represent clients at family courts to secure a stable living and contact arrangement for the child.

Where a solicitor protects your position

The court’s primary concern is the child’s welfare, with decisions that can affect living arrangements, schooling, and parental involvement. If a decision is not made promptly, the child’s day-to-day upbringing and long-term stability may be affected; a solicitor helps ensure timely, robust submissions and adherence to procedural deadlines under the Children Act 1989 and related family court rules.

Tagged solicitor Beresford Kennedy

I had a very positive experience overall. My solicitor was extremely responsive, approachable and efficient throughout the process of counselling me on my prenuptial agreement. Communication was excellent, and I always felt that questions were dealt with promptly and clearly in most situations. Remarkably easy to understand and relatable. I would definitely recommend to friends.

Working with Heather was a very easy process and made a difficult life situation much more manageable over the many months that it extended. Heather listened carefully and made useful observations and very clear suggestions on the way to proceed.

After a bitter break up with my ex partner and having no voice about my children's welfare and wellbeing, many people told me I had zero chance of being given a fair hearing regarding custody of my children. At first I was sceptical and didn't think I should bother, but I did seek advise and approached Owen, White and Catlin, I can honestly say that the work these people do is exceeded my expectations by miles, they were supportive, advise was made clear when I didn't understand and they were thorough throughout the whole process, The children now live with me and are thriving. A first class service !

From the outset, Shelley demonstrated exceptional communication skills, ensuring that I was always kept informed of the progress of my case. She was incredibly responsive to my queries, providing clear and concise answers that helped me navigate a tough legal process with confidence. Furthermore, I felt that I received excellent value for the level of service provided. Shelley's expertise and dedication were evident throughout, and I will be forever grateful for her support and the positive outcome she helped me achieve. I would highly recommend Shelley DeWorringham and Alsters Kelley Solicitors to anyone seeking professional and effective legal representation.
