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.

Shauna Pitchforth

Tagged solicitor Shauna Pitchforth

I first contacted Shauna in October 2024 and she continued to work on my case until July 2025. She is amazing at what she does and always goes above and beyond expectations. I found Shauna very easy to talk to and as a result of this, I was able to discuss a lot of distressing issues with her. Shauna is very professional and works efficiently. She gives great legal advice and always makes sure that everything is well prepared for court. Shauna works tirelessly to make sure that all paperwork is completed on time. I would highly recommend Shauna.

Was drowning with stress when my partner decided to divorce me, My cousin used Zena during his separation and he advised me to use her expertise. I did and I am so glad I did, Stress was lifted immediately and although a divorce is harrowing the advise and support from Zena made the whole experience manageable. Thank you so much for your help
