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.

Having spent the previous 24 months going around in circles with another practice, it was a pleasure to be introduced to Michael at Stokes Partners who excelled in every sense of the word. From the initial phone call to the final email, his care, excellent advice and efficient service meant much more than words can ever express at a time when the family needed it most.

Hi Emily & Fazila, Thank you both for facilitating a new chapter in my life! As stress levels heightened towards the culmination of the process you kept your cool! I can honestly say that instructing Boyes Turner was the best decision ever and represented money well spent. Fazila you managed the bulk of the workstream and displayed professionalism of the highest calibre and your empathetic manner insured that a nerve-racking event was managed with care and compassion. Thank you!

I felt very supported throughout the whole process and was kept informed at each stage. The process and my options were explained simply and advice given which I felt was always in my best interest. I had the opportunity to review and approve each submission throughout the process. All in all, a fantastic, very professional and warm service throughout and I would recommend to anyone else requiring this type of legal support.
