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.

Aimee BoothRebecca MahoneyTony Woods

Tagged solicitors Aimee Booth, Rebecca Mahoney and Tony Woods

I unfortunately had the experience of a very long and difficult journey through the court system following a challenging separation from my ex partner, through both public and private law proceedings, that I honestly believe I would not of been able to navigate through the minefield without the amazing support and guidance from Lawyers at Family Law Group in particular Rebecca Mahoney and Barrister Tony Woods who were both with me every step of the journey. From the start of my journey they supported not only the logistics of child proceedings, high standards of representation and knowledge in the law, but they offered support, reassurance, always giving me the strength to continue fighting which resulted in me finally being able to see my children after almost 2.5 years of proceedings and they never faulted in their professionalism, guidance and efficiency. In particular Rebecca became a support to which I felt more reassured in her presence in court and she would always explain what was happening and what some terminology meant if I didn’t understand - often going above and beyond changing her own commitments to make herself available on court dates often with very little notice. Tony’s knowledge and understanding was impeccable and like Rebecca understood the importance of consistency and routine for myself and made himself available to support teams call, meetings, and court dates, which having a familiar face, a good sense of humour and his expertise meant the world to me in the most of stressful and overwhelming situations. Tony is in my opinion by far the barrister there is out there! Within the family law group was also Johanna and Aimee who offered a great deal of knowledge and experience, completing a wide range of vital documents to support through all proceedings. Aimee was always available to support when needed and would guide me through processes and what happens next. From the very start of me visiting Family Law Group, you were made to feel welcome and the lady on reception in chesterfield particularly (apologies I’m not sure of her name) was always welcoming, kind and talkative. I will forever be in debt to Family Law for supporting me to have a relationship with my children and to finally hear my children laughter once more and having the ability to rebuild a future of memories. Thank you will never be enough to share my gratitude! There maybe a need for solisters in the future - and my first point of call will always be Family Law Group.
