Top 10 of 4,157 law firms for Parental responsibility, paternity disputes, surrogacy, Family Law

Law firms ranked by client reviews

Parental responsibility, paternity disputes and surrogacy cover how a child’s welfare is managed when parents, donors or surrogates are involved. In England, solicitors advise on who has parental responsibility, enforce or vary arrangements after separation, challenge or establish paternity, and navigate surrogacy agreements and legal parenthood. A solicitor drafts and reviews orders, applications, and agreements, helps with change of custody or contact, and represents clients in court or in negotiations with the other parent, the surrogate, or the local authority.

Where a solicitor protects your position

The rules around parental responsibility and paternity determine who makes major decisions for a child and who is financially responsible. Surrogacy involves strict regulatory and court oversight to protect the child’s welfare, with orders or records used to establish legal parenthood. A solicitor provides guidance on deadlines, appropriate court routes, and the evidence required to secure or resist orders that affect a child.

I had a very last minute meeting and Rebecca was kind enough to join me on this meeting. She was very efficient, professional and friendly. I had total confidence in her abilities and made me feel at ease, as well as supporting me through this meeting.

Daniel Bennett

Tagged solicitor Daniel Bennett

I am coming towards the end of the divorce process. Unfortunately it has been very acrimonious but Daniel Bennett has been by my side throughout and helped a very painful experience become a little easier. His care and attention has been extended to outside of normal office hours which I didn't expect. Due to the matrimonial home being shared during the separation then problems did arise outside of office hours and I am so grateful he was able to help me as the situation at times was unbearable. Throughout the process he has offered wisdom, kindness and of course legal expertise. However given my experience, I think a solicitor helping you to navigate your way through a divorce needs to have more skills than their legal training and with Daniel this is what I received. His support staff are very kind and attentive too. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Daniel Bennett and his team.

I used Christopher to assist with completing my financial consent order and finalising my divorce. Communication was clear, accurate and very prompt. Christopher and his team have a wealth of knowledge and dealt with every part of the process for me with no issues I would not hesitate to recommend Paul Robinson in the future. Thankyou for you professional assistance.

Hannah Byatt

Tagged solicitor Hannah Byatt

After being passed between four different solicitors at another firm during a long and difficult divorce, I cannot overstate what a difference Hannah made. From the moment she took on my case, she brought calm, clarity and real insight to a process that had felt relentless and overwhelming. Hannah arranged an excellent barrister on my behalf and managed the entire process from start to finish with exceptional professionalism. I always felt informed, supported and confident that my case was in the right hands. I would wholeheartedly recommend Hannah to anyone going through a difficult family law matter. She is quite simply outstanding.

Julie Munday

Tagged solicitor Julie Munday

Extremely knowledgeable, everyone at Taylor and Emmett goes above and beyond to help. Julie Munday (family law) is absolutely fantastic, her experience in family law makes her the best lawyer you could hope for to represent you. She made sure I understood the family court process, what each outcome could be, helped me to understand all the documents and made sure I had statements that covered everything that I needed to benefit my side of the case. Her advice was always straightforward and informative and also compassionate (a lot of court professionals lack this skill, but family court can be very emotional and it helps to have someone on your side who is not only knowledgeable and experienced but also understanding of the emotional impact these cases can have on parents and family). I would highly recommend Taylor and Emmett and Julie Munday.
