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.

Emilia HinchliffeRyan Revell

Tagged solicitors Emilia Hinchliffe and Ryan Revell

In April, we found ourselves involved in family proceedings following a minor argument between my partner and my daughter’s father, after which my daughter was retained and a number of serious allegations were made against both myself and my partner of eight years. Having looked at the many family solicitors available in the Hull area, we chose Kingston Family Law after reading reviews from other families who had found themselves in similar situations. We believe we made an excellent choice. We were allocated Ryan Revell to deal with our case, and he was fantastic throughout. He clearly explained the court process, what was required from us and the strategy for our case in a way that was easy to understand without being bogged down in legal jargon. Throughout the proceedings, Ryan kept our expectations realistic and, importantly, kept our focus on my daughter and what was best for her. He was organised, well prepared and productive throughout. Our case took around six months to conclude, and ultimately we achieved the result we wanted. Ryan did an excellent job communicating with professionals from ERYC, Cafcass and my daughter’s school, ensuring they had the information they needed to complete their reports and assessments. Anyone requiring the services of a solicitor should be prepared for a significant bill. However, I believe Ryan did his utmost to keep our costs as low as reasonably possible. He listened and communicated effectively, which reduced the need for us to repeatedly ask for clarification, and the court documents he produced were generally ready to go without unnecessary reworking. Kingston Family Law may not be the cheapest family solicitors in Hull, nor are they the most expensive, but we believe we received exceptional service for what we paid. While we feel the proceedings themselves were completely unnecessary and should never have happened, we are incredibly thankful for the support we received throughout them. I would highly recommend Ryan Revell and the team at Kingston Family Law to anyone who finds themselves needing support through family proceedings.

Victoria Maxwell

Tagged solicitor Victoria Maxwell

We required assistance and support with a parental order application, but intended to do most of the paperwork by ourselves. Victoria was more than happy to assist us with such an approach. From the very beginning the communication from Victoria and her colleagues was excellent and Victoria provided the right level of support and guidance when it was required. Victoria's very professional and friendly approach ensured that what started as a fairly daunting legal process became much less intimidating.
