Top 10 of 4,157 law firms for Parental Order, Family Law

Law firms ranked by client reviews

A Parental Order transfers legal parenthood to the intended parents in a surrogacy arrangement, allowing them to become the child’s legal parents. A solicitor in this area helps prepare and file the formal application to the Family Court, gather required evidence, obtain consent from the surrogate, and coordinate with social services and the court. They also attend hearings, manage any support orders, and ensure the order is made within the statutory window so parental rights pass to the intended parents.

Where a solicitor protects your position

The order matters because it replaces the surrogate’s parental rights with those of the intended parents, enabling them to make long-term decisions for the child, including custody, schooling, and medical consent. The process is time-sensitive: an application must usually be made within six months of the child’s birth, and delays can affect eligibility and finalisation.

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

Leons extensive knowledge, competence and clarity of explanation at all stages during a difficult time meant that I trusted his advice and felt confidence in him throughout. Leon seemed genuinely committed to achieving the best outcomes and whilst consistently working hard , applied himself with a calm approach during a traumatic time which made it easier for me to manage. Such value for money and I would not hesitate in using him again.

Emily Thomas

Tagged solicitor Emily Thomas

Emily first spoke to me on the phone when I was looking for a solicitor and I could tell from her tone and words that she understood I was in pain and in need of help. She was professional yet human throughout. She helped me navigate difficult times and I was grateful for her honesty and guidance.

I would like to thank Maxwell Hodge for their work, it’s been a difficult time and not the most straight forward of circumstances to navigate. The team have gone above and beyond in supporting and getting things to the end goal. I can’t recommend them enough.
