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.

I wish to express my sincere and heartfelt appreciation and gratitude to Laura Tarbuck, for her kindness over the past 3 years during which I have had to deal with a difficult time through family court.

Melanie Hamer

Tagged solicitor Melanie Hamer

A family friend and several acquaintances recommended Melanie Hamer at Wendy Hopkins and I fully endorse their opinions as I am indebted to Melanie and her Team for taking on my case. I was unfortunately positioned by another Family Lawyer in a rather precarious position just weeks ahead of my FDR. It became apparent that my former legal representation were positioning to withdraw their support and would not meet to face-to-face to discuss strategy. Despite the complexity and longevity of the case, Melanie and her Team were able to reassure me that they could provide support and more importantly prepare for the FDR. At extreme short notice with 12 lever arch files to digest, Melanie and the Team reacted swiftly and successfully represented me at FDR. There were further legal quality gates that had to be navigated, yet the dedication, professionalism and competence demonstrated by Melanie and her Team ensured that we were fully prepared for Counsel briefings and were consequently able to deliver at Court. Melanie is an excellent listener, shows empathy for her clients and respected my opinions. Strategizing together was personally paramount throughout my litigation and Melanie had faith, belief and trust in my approach which was so important. Reassuring, tenacious, professional, knowledgeable, engaging and being prepared to meet in person were several of the attributes I appreciated from working with Wendy Hopkins Family Law Practice. On reflection, I wish I had contracted Melanie and The Team from the outset of my case and I fully recommend them if you wish to work collaboratively, effectively and with a complete professional who is compassionate and reassuring

I have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending Colin - in fact, I have already passed his details on to others. He is highly professional and knowledgeable and goes above and beyond. Colin is equally very approachable and always happy to answer any queries you may have. He has guided me through challenging times, for which I will be forever grateful. Colin explains everything clearly and works tirelessly to achieve the best outcomes. I felt I was in good hands every step of the way. Many, many thanks

Leon Messam

Tagged solicitor Leon Messam

Leon Massan and his firm were absolutely brilliant. We had a really difficult experience with a different solicitor at the start, but Leon was completely different. His knowledge of family law was amazing, but what stood out most was how he used it – he was completely non-judgmental, took the time to acknowledge that I have autism, explained everything clearly in simple terms, and secured an outcome far better than I ever thought possible. He was humane, thoughtful and truly client-focused, putting my needs first every step of the way. I would recommend him and his firm to anybody and everybody. --- Thank you from all the family
