Top 10 of 4,157 law firms for Residence (Including Relocation Issues), Family Law

Law firms ranked by client reviews

This work covers where a child should live and how living arrangements can change, including applications to relocate. A solicitor handles applications for and defenses against relocation, often within the framework of the Children Act 1989, and seeks orders that set where the child will primarily reside while balancing the rights and needs of both parents. It can also involve mediation, evidence gathering, and representing the client in court if agreement cannot be reached.

Where a solicitor protects your position

Relocation decisions can have long-lasting consequences for a child. A solicitor provides guidance on the risks and deadlines, prepares and presents evidence, drafts statements, negotiates with the other party, and, if necessary, represents the client in family courts to obtain or resist a relocation order.

Fay Jones

Tagged solicitor Fay Jones

Fay has been phenomenal throughout an extremely difficult, challenging and slightly complex case to vary an existing Child Arrangements Order which lasted just over two years. The process has involved agencies, tactical delays, hostility from the other side and various other challenges that have made the process challenging emotionally and on many other levels. Fay was always calm under pressure, with a caring but realistic and honest approach but providing a proactive and solution focused action. Always making me feel in a safe pair of hands and well supported in what was one of the most emotional times in my life. Having been through the family court process a few years before with another firm, my experience with Fay was incomparable, a much higher level of competence, knowledge and professionalism with Fay and Wendy Hopkins. Fay really got the case, and understood the family dynamic and really cared about the outcome and throughout. I would whole heartedly recommend Fay and Wendy Hopkins to anyone, having experienced another firm previously, this time around really highlighted how good Fay really is. I can't thank Fay and the team enough for all their work and a positive outcome.

Lindsay McKinnie

Tagged solicitor Lindsay McKinnie

I cannot be more grateful to Lindsay, throughout a very distressing time. To say the least I would recommend her 100%! Her conduct was not only very professional, but kind and down to earth. She made my family feel valued and supported. Lindsays communication with us was constant, replying by text, when she was unable to speak directly, giving reassurance when needed. She communicated everything we needed to know, throughly & made sure everything was understood, at every point of her service. At no point did we feel that there were any concerns of neglect, towards us or the situation we were dealing with. Lindsay remained focused and gave us peace of mind. This meant so much & was so important. Thank you!

Nicola Weeks

Tagged solicitor Nicola Weeks

Pragmatic but essential guidance through divorce proceedings. It was very important to both of us that we didn't fall out and make a bad situation worse, and Nicola worked with me and my now ex-wife's solicitor to ensure that any queries or potentially contentious issues were quickly and positively closed down. The orders were proposed and agreed promptly and the whole exercise was as painless as it could be in the circumstances.
