In England, Social Services work covers safeguarding and welfare cases involving children and adults within local authority care services. A solicitor handles care proceedings, assessments, and safeguarding actions, including applications for interim orders, supervision, or discharge of care orders, and advocacy in related court hearings. They also advise on welfare matters, housing, and support plans, coordinating with local authorities, health bodies, and guardians to protect vulnerable people and secure appropriate care and support arrangements.
Solicitors bring professional accountability to safeguarding: they rely on regulated practice, professional conduct standards, and, when needed, representation in court. They ensure compliance with the Children Act 1989, safeguarding duties, and relevant guidance, while navigating professional standards, registered social care processes, and the protections afforded by client accounts and dispute resolution frameworks.

Tagged solicitor Michael Hicks
My overall experience with Michael Hicks has been extremely positive. He took over my case after my previous solicitor retired. At first, I was a little concerned about whether my case would receive the same level of attention, as I was not originally his client. However, those concerns quickly disappeared. Michael was professional, polite, and highly responsive throughout the process. He took the time to understand my case, kept me well informed, and provided honest, practical, and effective advice that gave me confidence every step of the way. I truly appreciate his dedication and support, and I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy solicitor. I wish Michael every success in the future. Thank you for all your help.
