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.

Charlotte was very helpful, friendly and professional. She patiently lead me through the divorce process, there to offer advice at every stage. I cannot fault Charlotte or Tisshaws and would definitely recommend them.

Katie was absolutely fantastic throughout my entire experience, right from our first meeting to the end where we signed off final paperwork. Katie was professional, caring, and very detailed in her work. I would 100% recommend Katie's services.
