Law firms ranked by client reviews

This area covers applications to relocate a child to another country and related disputes, within the English family justice system. It includes how to obtain court permission to move, or how to resist relocation, when a child is at risk of being moved abroad. A solicitor in this area advises on the best evidence to gather, drafts and negotiates applications under the Children Act 1989, prepares supporting statements, and represents the client in court hearings in family court proceedings, often coordinating with Cafcass and international authorities to ensure the child’s welfare remains protected during cross-border moves.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

Relocation cases require detailed welfare assessments, cross-border considerations, and the involvement of foreign authorities where applicable; the solicitor handles the drafting of applications, gathering third-party evidence, instructing experts (e.g., social workers, mental health professionals), liaising with Cafcass, and representing the client at hearings in the Family Court. They ensure compliance with international child protection norms and document the potential impact on the child’s welfare and stability.

Deborah Bailey

Tagged solicitor Deborah Bailey

Deborah was a pleasure to deal with honest and upfront in regards to my divorce and the pitfalls I had to face, her professionalism shone through from the moment I met her (previous experience had). I highly recommend Gowen and Stevens especially Deborah Bailey whom I can only praise. I give a special mention to the other voice behind the phone Caroline whom was always helpful, pleasant with nothing being a problem I would say you spoke with a smile. Thankyou both for your help.

Heather Harkes

Tagged solicitor Heather Harkes

Having had disappointing experiences with other solicitors in the past, I reached out to Heather at Burys regarding a complex and sensitive family matter. From the very beginning, Heather and the entire team at Burys were exceptionally helpful, understanding, and consistently provided sensible and practical advice throughout the entire process. They handled everything in a timely manner, from frequent updates via phone and email to managing the extensive paperwork and forms. Thanks to Heather and the team at Burys, the outcome of my case was precisely what I had hoped for. My barrister was well prepared thanks to the well organised paperwork and communication and the numerous court hearings were just that much easier thanks to this. I could not have navigated the legal process without their expert guidance and support. When you seek legal assistance, you are also paying for the reassurance that you will have people around you who can correctly assess the situation, guide you and be honest about your options. In this case, I got exactly that. I will not hesitate to contact Burys again in the future if I ever need legal assistance.
