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

Law firms ranked by client reviews

Child maintenance covers the ongoing financial support a non-resident parent provides for a child after separation. It centres on the Child Maintenance Service and, where court routes are used, family courts to determine or enforce payments. A solicitor in this area helps clients apply for or challenge maintenance, draft and send required documents, review calculations, and advise on enforcement options if payments stop. In practice, decisions hinge on income, the child’s needs, and any shared care arrangements.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

The solicitor handles statutory calculations, appeals, and enforcement actions, including dealing with Schedule 1 arrangements when appropriate, and coordinates with the Child Maintenance Service and, if necessary, the family courts to secure or adjust support.

Sarah Orrell and her assistant Carol Cunningham helped me through an extremely difficult situation that has spanned 10 years. I have recommended Leonard Gray and will continue to do so.

Emily Spencer

Tagged solicitor Emily Spencer

Emily was great. She explained the will writing process and the Power of Attorney in a clear and easily understandable way. She kept us appraised of progress at each stage and arranged meetings at suitable times. She was very personable and made us feel at ease during the process. Emily outlined how things would progress and everything followed the outline. We were very happy with both her and Winston's and would be happy to use them again or recommend them to friends.

Francesca Sanderson

Tagged solicitor Francesca Sanderson

Received initial consultation FOC, then engaged for chargeable guidance. The information received was very professional and extremely useful. I was ready to move to the next step with legal advice and taking the case forward to court, but due to changes in circumstances, I no longer needed the additional services. I received a wonderful message afterwards that was very personalised to my situation, so wasn’t a stock answer, but a thoughtfully constructed email. Would definitely engage them again if the situation changes, with such a caring team.

Jen Law

Tagged solicitor Jen Law

Jen has been fantastic from start to finish in a situation that was incredibly difficult for me and my children. She is non judgemental, efficient and on the ball at all times. I have valued her advice and support at court from a time I was a quivering wreck until the resolution of proceedings including a non-molestation order, children's proceedings and divorce. Communication from Jen and her team has been brilliant and she has always looked at methods to reduce costs for me and explained where things were going. Jen is a no nonsense professional with a big heart and a can do attitude and I can't recommend her and the team at Slee-Blackwell highly enough

Louise Ellis

Tagged solicitor Louise Ellis

Louise has been amazing these past two years support me fighting in court over my son. She has guided me and explained everything to me when I couldn’t understand things. She’s supported me when no one would and have me the best advice in making the right decisions for not only my child but for me too. 2 years she has been my solicitor and hopefully I won’t need her anymore and I’ll be very sad however I know that I’m in the best position now with contact for my son and his dad thanks to Louise. She listened to me and worded things better for me when I couldn’t articulate my feelings and sign posted me in the right directions. The sympathy and compassion when I had my accident half way through proceedings and understanding how I was feeling and how this impacted my views was so easy thanks to Louise and her secretary Lynn too. Her support was amazing. I just want to say a massive massive massive Thankyou to Louise for all her hard work these past two years and being so patience and resilient with me as I know I probably wasn’t the easiest person to deal with. From both me and Harrison!!
