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.

Giles Dobson

Tagged solicitor Giles Dobson

I would like to express my deepest appreciation towards Martin Tolhurst and more specifically towards Mr. Dobson and all his administrative and legal associates who worked on my case. My case was about the relocation of my child away from the U.K.. It was extremely confrontational to the degree of utter polarisation – at times probing the limits of civility. However, Giles managed the case impeccably and thanks to his services I can know look forward into the future with the ‘glass half-full instead of half-empty’. I would like to draw attention specifically to his exemplary customer-calibrated ethos. When the time came and we had to make a choice, while he could easily keep ‘churning out’ legal costs, he leant on me more as a friend and less as a legal counsellor with the aim to bring about closure – which we did. I, along with my daughter, ‘owe’ him.

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.

Stuart Tyler

Tagged solicitor Stuart Tyler

​After a very poor experience with a previous firm, finding Stuart was incredibly refreshing. The level of service was night and day. ​From start to finish, Stuart was: ​Extremely Knowledgeable: His expertise was evident from the start. He was consistently ahead of the game and nothing escaped his attention. ​Efficient and Responsive: He provided speedy answers and clear communication, meaning I was never left wondering about the status of my case. ​Completely Stress-Free: I encountered absolutely no problems throughout the entire process. If you want someone professional who gets the job done without the usual headaches, I highly recommend Stuart. ​

Emma was professional, easy to understand and knowledgeable. The office in Epworth is just a counter, not very inviting. The whole process was easy
