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.

Rebecca Jackson

Tagged solicitor Rebecca Jackson

I contacted the firm to help with a situation to do with my children. I needed legal advice and representation in court. I was told that a solicitor would contact me to discuss my case. This didn't happen, I called the office only to be told that they would be in touch, again, nothing. I then emailed, I was informed the original solicitor was leaving the firm ans someone else would be in touch. By this time I have been given my court date and informed them of this. I am now the day before my court day and still haven't heard anything from the firm. Thankfully I have managed to find advice online, although I won't have legal representation in court. I would not recommend this firm to anyone. EDIT After emailing the firm to state that I was unhappy with their service. I have now been in contact with Rebecca is helping me now.

Paul Moores

Tagged solicitor Paul Moores

We dealt with Paul Moores, who showed great professionalism from start to finish. Paul diligently explained the various options available for us with both the LPOA for Property and Financial Affairs, as well as for Health and Welfare. Paul also explained the process and guided us throughout each step. Paul was also in touch and extremely responsive, as and when required. We have no hesitation in highly recommending both Paul and the M&M team.

AA'ISHAH SATTAR

Tagged solicitor AA'ISHAH SATTAR

I wanted to take a moment to share my experience with Aa’ishah, who was an absolutely amazing solicitor. Her expertise, professionalism, and dedication was evident from the very start, making my experience smooth and stress-free. Aa’ishah demonstrated a deep understanding of the legal issues at hand and provided clear, concise advice that was incredibly helpful. I felt completely supported throughout the entire process and knew that I was in capable hands. Her ability to communicate complex legal matters in an easy-to-understand manner was truly impressive. Moreover, Aa’ishah was always prompt in responding to any queries I had and went above and beyond to ensure that I was well-informed at every step. It is clear that she is passionate about her work and genuinely care about her clients. I could not have asked for a better solicitor, and I am extremely grateful for the outstanding service provided by Aa’ishah. I highly recommend her to anyone in need of legal assistance. P.s I literally gave her a hard time as my anxiety was over the roof but she continued to reassure me with so much compassion. Thank you, Aa’shah, for your exceptional service.

As a lawyer practising in Spain, I contacted on behalf of a client who required a power of attorney for use in Spain. Carolina responded immediately to our request and handled the matter with great professionalism and efficiency. We received a scanned copy of the executed power of attorney in a remarkably short time. An excellent and highly responsive service, which I would be pleased to recommend.
