Top 10 of 4,157 law firms for Step Parents, Family Law

Law firms ranked by client reviews

This area covers how a stepparent can become legally involved in a child’s upbringing, including step-parent adoption, securing parental responsibility, and resolving questions about contact and care when the natural parent remains in the picture. A solicitor helps with applications for parental responsibility, drafting orders, and negotiating arrangements that protect the child’s welfare while clarifying each adult’s roles. It can shape long‑term parenting decisions and a child’s future stability.

Where a solicitor protects your position

The key decisions include appointing or confirming parental responsibility, arranging contact orders, and the potential for step‑parent adoption. A solicitor coordinates evidence for the court, liaises with the local authority when necessary, and guides the case through the family court process, ensuring that orders reflect the child’s best interests and legal rights are respected.

Kerry Sauntson

Tagged solicitor Kerry Sauntson

I was looked after by Kerry Sauntson, and her colleagues Ben Parker and Leah Dujon. Whenever Kerry was unavailable Ben and Leah stepped in and ensured my case proceeded as smoothly as possible. On the day of my Court Hearing Leah spent the whole day with me, despite the fact that we were not required for much of the time. Both Ben and Leah are a credit to Calthrops and the way in which Kerry allows them to gain experience at first hand. I could not have been happier at my choice of Calthrops as my solicitors.

Nicola Weeks

Tagged solicitor Nicola Weeks

Pragmatic but essential guidance through divorce proceedings. It was very important to both of us that we didn't fall out and make a bad situation worse, and Nicola worked with me and my now ex-wife's solicitor to ensure that any queries or potentially contentious issues were quickly and positively closed down. The orders were proposed and agreed promptly and the whole exercise was as painless as it could be in the circumstances.
