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.

Lisa Brown

Tagged solicitor Lisa Brown

I am so thankful and forever grateful to Lisa and the team at McAlister Family Law. Lisa's legal advice and expertise helped me significantly, she held my hand with warmth and support throughout the process of obtaining financial support from my (frustratingly avoidant) ex-partner for our young son in what was such an extremely difficult period of my life. Lisa has been very caring, calming and understanding and felt like a true friend throughout. She is very approachable, personable and professional. I honestly don't think i would've got through it all without Lisa. The best outcome for my son. Highly recommended.

Lauren Riley

Tagged solicitor Lauren Riley

When faced with the difficult decision to seek an enforcement order for a child arrangement order, I knew I needed a solicitor who was not only legally sharp but also deeply understanding of the sensitive nature of the situation. From the moment I instructed her, Lauren Riley proved to be exactly that and more. The process of enforcing a child arrangement order can be incredibly stressful, and Lauren handled every step with a perfect balance of legal assertiveness and genuine compassion. She listened carefully to my concerns about the breaches of the order and meticulously gathered the necessary evidence. Lauren’s guidance was invaluable, as she clearly explained the legal requirements and what to expect from the court proceedings. Her communication was excellent; she was always available to answer my questions and provided regular updates, which gave me immense peace of mind during a very anxious time. Lauren's ability to present a clear and compelling case to the court was instrumental in the positive outcome we achieved. She was a tireless advocate for my child’s best interests, and I felt completely confident in her representation. Thanks to Lauren's expertise and dedication, me and my child are getting required building blocks put in place by the court . I wholeheartedly recommend Lauren Riley to any parent who needs a solicitor to navigate the complexities of child arrangements and enforcement. She is a compassionate and formidable lawyer who truly fights for what is right."

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.
