Law firms ranked by client reviews

Guardianship disputes in England cover who should have lasting responsibility for a child when parents cannot or should not decide. A solicitor helps with court applications to appoint, vary or remove a guardian under the Children Act 1989, advising on parental responsibility, welfare decisions and who can make important choices about the child’s life. They assist with preparing evidence, drafting court documents, negotiating with family members, and presenting the case in the Family Court or its approved equivalents, always focusing on the child’s welfare and legal status.

Where a solicitor protects your position

The decisive issues are who will exercise parental responsibility and make ongoing welfare decisions for the child, including where they live and how they are looked after. A solicitor helps gather evidence, prepare applications for guardianship orders, and present the case to the court, ensuring the child’s rights and best interests are protected under the Children Act 1989.

Katrina Whyard

Tagged solicitor Katrina Whyard

Katrina was (and is) fantastic. She came highly recommended from my mortgage broker – I can see why, now – and did wonders. I had quite a tight deadline for a divorce-mandated transfer of property and remortgage, for quite a complex little right-to-manage flat in London, and she was thorough, persistent and highly communicative throughout. She pulled out all the stops and couldn’t have been more helpful and collaborative. I got a much better service than I ever expected and would recommend Katrina unreservedly!

Malini Domah

Tagged solicitor Malini Domah

I contacted National Legal Service at a time when I felt unsupported and alone, following a very difficult experience with another solicitor. From the very first phone call, I felt listened to, understood, and supported. I was introduced to supervising solicitor Malini Domah, who showed genuine empathy and compassion from the outset. She immediately took my case seriously and supported me every step of the way. Her dedication was incredible — she fought tirelessly for me, even giving up her weekends and time during annual leave to ensure I was supported. Although we never met in person due to distance, she was always there at the end of the phone when I needed her most. Her commitment went above and beyond anything I could have expected. I would also like to thank Tia Pavett and the whole team at National Legal Service. Without their support, I truly believe I may have lost my son. I will never be able to thank them enough. From the bottom of my heart — thank you. Vicky Mason
