Top 10 of 4,157 law firms for Declarations of Parentage, Family Law

Law firms ranked by client reviews

Declarations of Parentage cover the factual question of who is a child’s parent, and can provide a formal judicial finding of parentage for a child where it is disputed or uncertain. In England, a solicitor helps clients obtain a court declaration that establishes parentage for a child, enabling rights to contact, inheritance or the child’s welfare arrangements to be settled on a clear footing.

Where a solicitor protects your position

A declaration of parentage formalises who the legal parent is, which affects parental rights and responsibilities, names on the child’s birth record, and duties such as maintenance. A solicitor prepares and presents the application, gathers evidence (including DNA if needed), coordinates with the child’s other parent or guardians, and represents the client in proceedings before the Family Court or High Court so the court can determine parentage.

Michael Hicks

Tagged solicitor Michael Hicks

My overall experience with Michael Hicks has been extremely positive. He took over my case after my previous solicitor retired. At first, I was a little concerned about whether my case would receive the same level of attention, as I was not originally his client. However, those concerns quickly disappeared. Michael was professional, polite, and highly responsive throughout the process. He took the time to understand my case, kept me well informed, and provided honest, practical, and effective advice that gave me confidence every step of the way. I truly appreciate his dedication and support, and I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy solicitor. I wish Michael every success in the future. Thank you for all your help.

Orla OConnor

Tagged solicitor Orla OConnor

I would very strongly recommend Stowe Family Law. I have used Stowe for various legal proceedings for children’s and family finance related cases and they have been excellent. Throughout litigation, I have dealt with many members of staff at Stowe and they have all been extremely helpful and competent. I instructed Orla O’Connor for the legal proceedings. Orla is incredibly knowledgable and thorough, offering sound advice and managing my case, which was particularly challenging at times, very professionally. Orla was able to achieve my desired outcome at the final hearing and conclusion of my child order application. I cannot recommend Orla (and Stowe) highly enough !

Brian Fraser

Tagged solicitor Brian Fraser

After 18 months of torture following a horrible separation and floundering around with a number of awful lawyers clearly only interested in getting paid I stumbled across Brian at Elite Law. As with most lawyers I got the one hour free intro phone call but I knew I was on the right track when the hour was well and truly over but he still called me back to finish the story and I genuinely felt that he heard me and understood what I was going through. In the following days he came back to me with a plan and reassured me that he knew what to do and this turned out to be true. Over the following months he continued to reassure me that my position was solid and explained the law and his plan for what to do. He communicated well despite probably having many other clients and the advice he gave me turned out to be exactly the right thing to do which ended with a far more positive result than I had reconciled myself with when we first spoke. I would never have thought to do what we did but it got me the right result and I am forever grateful. Brian was part therapist at the beginning and part friend at the end and it was worth every penny.
