Top 10 of 4,157 law firms for Contact Proceedings, Family Law

Law firms ranked by client reviews

Contact proceedings cover arrangements for a child’s contact with a parent or other family member after separation or divorce. A solicitor helps you seek or respond to an order setting when and how contact happens, and to resolve disputes over holidays, supervision, or supervised access. They draft applications, gather welfare evidence, and represent you at court to promote a safe, regular relationship for the child while safeguarding their welfare.

Where a solicitor protects your position

The key decision is the child arrangements order, which can determine who the child spends time with, when, and in what setting. A solicitor ensures the application or response is properly prepared, coordinates with Cafcass or its English equivalent when needed, and guides you through mediation, court procedure, and any required disclosures to protect the child's best interests.

Tia Harrison

Tagged solicitor Tia Harrison

Tia recently assisted me with a particularly complicated and onerous legal situation. Time was of the essence, Tia's approach was professional, pragmatic and robust, always prompt and absolutely reliable with regard responding to myself and other parties involved. As previously stated we had little time however Tia's knowledge and expertise became very evident very quickly. The case was successful and I have no doubt that this was due not only to Tia's experience and capabilities but also down to her sincere approach, ability to listen and take the time to understand. I would engage again without a moment's hesitation and I cannot recommend to others more highly.

Vanessa Gillbanks

Tagged solicitor Vanessa Gillbanks

I found Vanessa Gillbanks extremely helpful and informative, using language that was easy to understand at a time that was very stressful to me. I would readily recommend this company. The charges were advised to me before I started any proceedings which of course was preferable as I was able to budget for these. I am completely happy to go back to Richard Nelson LLP for any future needs.

Jodie Davies

Tagged solicitor Jodie Davies

I instructed Jodie Davies at Devonalds Solicitors for highly contentious financial remedy and child arrangements proceedings that lasted the best part of three years. From the outset, Jodie demonstrated exceptional professionalism, calm expertise, and — above all — unwavering integrity. This stood in stark contrast to the tactics employed by significantly more expensive and supposedly “reputable” firms on the other side. In an area of law where emotions run high and conduct can sink to deplorable levels, Jodie always advised me with complete honesty, clarity, and principle. She never over-promised and never rose to provocation. Her strategic guidance and meticulous preparation presented my case in the strongest possible light and led to very positive outcomes in both matters. While results can never be guaranteed, all any client can ask is for you and your case to be as well presented as possible — that’s what Jodie does. I am eternally grateful for her support through an extraordinarily challenging period that included some truly difficult moments. I am proud to say that Jodie was, and remains, my solicitor. I would not hesitate to recommend Jodie and the team at Devonalds to anyone needing compassionate, principled, and highly effective family law representation. Thank you, Jodie and your team. Words will never fully convey it, but you have made all the difference to my daughter’s life and mine. Thank you. Neil December 2025
