Child Law covers how the state protects and decides in matters affecting a child’s welfare, including parental contact, custody, residence, and upbringing under the Children Act 1989 and related law.

Emma Gallant

Tagged solicitor Emma Gallant

Can not fault the service I have received from Emma. Everything has been timely and efficient. All communication was either on line or by telephone which speeded things up. Nothing was ever too much trouble for Emma and she made things clear and easy to understand. I have since recommended her to a family member who is going through a divorce.

I was fortunate enough to have a wonderful lawyer at BWK; sensitive, tenacious and knowledgeable. She was also careful to minimise the cost of her time. I would not hesitate to use BWK again.

Stephanie Buckeridge

Tagged solicitor Stephanie Buckeridge

As a 'blended' family we have been in the unenviable position of needing a significant amount of legal advice regarding family matters. Having used other firms in the past, both my husband and I have chosen to rely on Gardner Leader, in particular on Stephanie Buckeridge, to advise and lead on these matters. The firm has represented us for a number of years and we could not be more impressed or thankful for the personalised support we have received. In every case we have achieved an outcome which truly reflects the best interests of our (combined) four children.
