This work covers the welfare of children within family law, including parenting disputes, child arrangements, and safeguarding when public law is involved. A solicitor advising in this area helps clients with parenting plans, contact and residence arguments, applications for orders under the Children Act 1989, and enforcement or variations of existing orders, as well as representation in care proceedings and related court hearings. The focus is on ensuring the child’s best interests are protected, whether through private child arrangements or public law protection.
The decision can permanently affect a child’s living arrangements, contact with parents and other guardians, and long-term welfare. A solicitor provides guidance on deadlines, evidential requirements, and procedural steps in court, and prepares or advises on applications, affidavits, and case management. The involvement includes liaising with local authorities, Cafcass (or the equivalent), guardians ad litem where appointed, and the family court to secure a lawful, best-interests outcome.

My ex recently sent me court paperwork about our son. I was very panicked and contacted a few solicitors who never came back to me. I contacted this firm and I was booked in to see a solicitor the next day

I would totally recommend Stryders. I was delighted at their friendly and open approach to my issue. I was involved at every step of the way, so I knew what was going on. They was excellent at keeping me updated and told me I could contact them at anytime with any concerns or worries I had. I knew I could rely on them to achieve the best outcome for my son. Alicia was very good with my Son and outlined clearly the case and gave very good instructions for court.

I have gone through my divorce using the service ms of Calthorpes solicitors and they were very helpful. Even when I was not able to pay all, they made arrangements to meet my needs. I definitely recommend.

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.

I thoroughly recommend Boyes Turner. I cannot thank them enough for the effort they have put in for my son and our family. From the outset Richard and his team have been straightforward, knowledgeable, patient and considerate and throughout the whole process have had my son's best interests at heart.
