Top 10 of 4,159 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.

Rebekah Maher

Tagged solicitor Rebekah Maher

Thanks to the determination, patience and professionalism of Rebekah, I was able to achieve the outcome in my divorce that we set out to do, despite numerous setbacks. Rebekah was always transparent in her correspondence, so I was made fully aware about how things were progressing, but was also determined to secure a fair outcome on my behalf when progress was stalling.

Shak Inayat

Tagged solicitor Shak Inayat

After being let down by several solicitors, in an extremely adversarial and lengthy family court case, Shak was recommended to me. He helped me understand how the family court system works and how my previous approach was damaging my case. Over a year on, with Shak's expert guidance and support, my situation has changed for the better. Shak is extremely knowledgeable and was always supportive. I felt I could always call on his expertise if I had any concerns. My child and I can now look forward to the future, but this would not have been possible without Shak and the team at Penn Chambers.

Georgia was appointed to represent myself over a family matter, During the course of the case I was very impressed and satisfied with not only the way in which she presented herself professionally but also her understanding and sincerety During what was a stressful time for myself she engaged and was understanding about what I was going threw and reassured me .I've no doubt that once Georgia is fully qualified she'll go on to make an excellent solicitor threw not only her profession but her ability to combine her genuine sincerety for her clients During a difficult time I would have no hesitation in recommending her .
