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.

Simon Fisher

Tagged solicitor Simon Fisher

I had the privilege of having Simon Fisher/Partner at Gardner Leader, as my main solicitor throughout my divorce, and I cannot recommend him and his team highly enough. Simon handled my financial matters with exceptional skill, successfully securing an agreement just ahead of the final hearing. His colleague, Rosie, managed the children matters case, which progressed to a final hearing and concluded with a very positive outcome. Simon was incredibly responsive, and consistently available—qualities that made a world of difference during such a difficult and emotional time. Whether by email or phone, his communication was prompt and clear, and he always took the time to explain every step of the process, answering all my questions with patience and empathy. His advice was always measured, thoughtful, and reassuring, giving me real confidence at every stage. Although the service was not the cheapest, the quality of advice, professionalism, and level of care I received made it entirely worthwhile. I truly felt supported by both Simon and Rosie—professionally and personally. Their calm, compassionate approach and legal expertise helped me navigate an incredibly challenging time with clarity and strength. I would not hesitate for a moment to recommend Simon Fisher and the team at Gardner Leader to anyone in need of expert family law representation. They are outstanding.

I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Zishan at M & K Solicitors Ltd for his outstanding support during my child custody case. From start to finish, he was professional, compassionate, and extremely knowledgeable. Zishan took the time to clearly explain every step of the process and ensured I fully understood my options. He was always responsive, patient, and reassuring during what was a very stressful and emotional time. His dedication and expertise made a significant difference in my case, and I truly felt that he had both my best interests and my child’s wellbeing at heart.

Samantha O'Dwyer

Tagged solicitor Samantha O'Dwyer

It has been a long 3 years to get my Joint Custody and Divorce sorted, but Sam and her team where there for me every step of the way. All of the team including the barristers where polite, friendly and very reassuring, making me feel so at ease every time I needed to attend court. They kept me up to date with developments and told me when I needed to complete things. I was very happy with the service from Sam and all her team and very, very happy with the outcome.

Paula Caldwell

Tagged solicitor Paula Caldwell

I needed a Consent Order done for my divorce and I was fully explained what the process involved. It was easy to understand, and if any further work was required it was a straightforward process and there was no hidden/unexpected costs at the end. I would use again for any other legal matters in the future.

Anesha Pavaday

Tagged solicitor Anesha Pavaday

I was extremely worried that my child will be taken out of the country without my consent by my ex-partner. I contacted TV Edwards Solicitors seeking help and legal advice. I was worried, nervous and lost. Anesha Pavaday contacted me within a short time and listened to my concerns. she acted with an extreme sense of urgency and did not leave a stone unturned. Anesha was guiding me even in out of office hours making sure all the relevant bodies are contacted while she was doing the prohibited order/Port alert work from her side, which it was granted by the court within 48hrs. all of this was done without asking me for an upfront payment. she put my child safety first before anything. Anesha even advised me of my rights to have safe access to my child by making an application for arrangements. Anesha is a credit to your organisation and to our community. I and family will always use TV Edwards solicitors and I will highly recommend Anesha. Thank you very much. I am ever so grateful.
