Top 10 of 4,157 law firms for Children Act proceedings, Family Law

Law firms ranked by client reviews

Children Act proceedings cover how courts decide parental responsibility, residence, contact and safeguarding for children when families face separation, disagreement or risk. A solicitor guides the client through applications under the Children Act 1989, prepares statements, disclosures and witness evidence, negotiates orders such as residence or contact, applies for child arrangements orders, and represents the client at court hearings. The work often involves coordinating with social services, hospital or school staff, and ensuring the child’s welfare remains the court’s central concern.

Where a solicitor protects your position

The decisive factor is the child’s welfare and the potential for permanent changes to where a child lives or how they spend time with each parent. A solicitor helps navigate deadlines, court procedures and the availability of interim orders to protect the child’s best interests while the case proceeds.

Julie Munday

Tagged solicitor Julie Munday

Extremely knowledgeable, everyone at Taylor and Emmett goes above and beyond to help. Julie Munday (family law) is absolutely fantastic, her experience in family law makes her the best lawyer you could hope for to represent you. She made sure I understood the family court process, what each outcome could be, helped me to understand all the documents and made sure I had statements that covered everything that I needed to benefit my side of the case. Her advice was always straightforward and informative and also compassionate (a lot of court professionals lack this skill, but family court can be very emotional and it helps to have someone on your side who is not only knowledgeable and experienced but also understanding of the emotional impact these cases can have on parents and family). I would highly recommend Taylor and Emmett and Julie Munday.

Nicola Conley

Tagged solicitor Nicola Conley

Having never thought I would be in a position to need a solicitor I found myself with no option and no idea what to ‘look for’ so I went with my heart and gut and a person who seemed very trustworthy and professional - well that was the right decision and Nicola has been incredible. It’s been a long and windy journey and without Nicola goodness knows what would have happened - she not only was amazing professionally but also believed in me when I didn’t. The children and I will be forever grateful. Thank you and also to the team at downs.
