Law firms ranked by client reviews

Relative Adoption covers legally adopting a child where the prospective adoptive parent is a relative or someone close to the child, in England. A solicitor in this area handles applications to the family court for an adoption order, drafts and negotiates the consent and related welfare reports, prepares the necessary court documents, and liaises with the local authority, adopters, and the child’s birth family. The process is guided by the Adoption and Children Act 2002 and care proceedings when relevant, and results in the transfer of parental rights to the adoptive relative. The work may involve welfare assessments, home studies, and post-adoption matters such as contact arrangements.

Where a solicitor protects your position

The key decision is the adoption order, which permanently transfers parental rights and responsibilities. A solicitor provides guidance on timing, evidence, and any competing claims, and ensures timetables and court steps are met, with attention to safeguarding and the child’s welfare throughout the process.

Jonathan navigated us through the complicated process of obtaining Guardianship for my husband. Jonathan was very knowledgeable and kept us full informed in language we could understand during the whole process. He, along with his assistant , Breagh delivered a fast, professional and efficient service and I would definitely have no hesitation in recommending them.

I had a great experience working with the Greens Solicitors organization. They were highly professional and strategic, instilling confidence and assurance throughout the court process. The staff was consistently helpful and supportive, and communication was effortless. I could reach out to them at any moment. They guided me throughout the process and provided a detailed explanation of each action, which was very helpful. This was the second time I sought their assistance, and I am extremely pleased with their work.
