Top 10 of 4,157 law firms for Social Services, Family Law

Law firms ranked by client reviews

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.

Why this work is usually handled by a solicitor

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.

Burcu Bulbul

Tagged solicitor Burcu Bulbul

My name is Peter Nixon I have currently been in a difficult situation with the care of my children. This has been a new and different experience for me. I was asked to get a solicitor and I decided to use Rawlins Davy Reeves simply because I walk past there office a lot. I didn't know how good they were or have any idea how long i would need to use a solicitor for. I became in contact with Burcu Bulbul from Rawlins Davy Reeves. I have been in contact with Burcu for 9 months while the social services and courts have been decided on the outcome of the children. Burcu has been an absolute pleasure to work with and has delivered me the best service I could have asked for. Burcu has always been very professional and most importantly has reassured me and showed me that she was always there to support me when i needed her. I have the up most respect for her and the whole team at Rawlins Davy Reeves. I am thoroughly impressed with the service, support and compassion that I have received from Burcu. I would recommend Burcu Bulbul and Rawlins Davy Reeves to anyone who needs a solicitor whether it be a family case like mine or for some other legal matter. All that is left to say is thank you very much Burcu Bulbul and thank you to Rawlins Davy Reeves. Peter Nixon

Merlene George

Tagged solicitor Merlene George

I had a 30-minute fixed-fee family consultation with Merlene online to discuss considerations around an amicable separation and divorce. Merlene was professional and helpful; she listened well and was calm and clear when explaining the process and legal considerations. She promptly followed up with attendance notes. I came away from the call feeling calmer, more informed and reassured as result.
