Top 10 of 4,157 law firms for Stepparent Adoption, Family Law

Law firms ranked by client reviews

Stepparent adoption covers when a current spouse or partner wants to become the legal parent of a child who is not biologically theirs. A solicitor guides the process through the Family Court, coordinating social work assessments, the child’s welfare and evidence about the suitability of the placement. They prepare and file the necessary documents, obtain consent from birth parents where possible, address any objections, and help finalize an Adoption Order so the stepparent gains parental rights and duties.

Why this work is usually handled by a solicitor

Adoptive orders are regulated by professional rules and subject to court scrutiny. A solicitor ensures the correct welfare considerations are addressed, handles the evidence from social workers, and manages the conduct of the case in court and with the child’s birth family. They must maintain client accounts and comply with professional standards throughout the process.

Emily Spencer

Tagged solicitor Emily Spencer

Emily was great. She explained the will writing process and the Power of Attorney in a clear and easily understandable way. She kept us appraised of progress at each stage and arranged meetings at suitable times. She was very personable and made us feel at ease during the process. Emily outlined how things would progress and everything followed the outline. We were very happy with both her and Winston's and would be happy to use them again or recommend them to friends.

Alexandra Goldrein

Tagged solicitor Alexandra Goldrein

I came to Slater Heelies after a disaster with previous solicitor. Alex from the onset was friendly, reassuring, professional but firm. Many times she had to challenge my perspectives and encouraged strength. Alex had an objective approach and was always quick and prompt in replying to emails and calls. Her in depth knowledge was reassuring and was able to relay in a succinct manner that was easy to digest. I felt with Alex’s friendly manner that she always had my best interests at the heart and was extremely reassuring during the whole process which was really appreciated. I would have no hesitation in using her again… but at the same time hope that there would never be a need. Thank you

Jen Law

Tagged solicitor Jen Law

We were very fortunate to have been advised and represented by Jen during a recent case. Undoubtedly without Jen the outcome would have been less positive. We were constantly informed and updated of our situation during the whole process. You could clearly see Jen was respected greatly from the other legal professionals and this provided a great deal of confidence to us as well as a calming influence that is sometimes needed during such delicate discussions and negotiations. We ultimately received the best possible outcome with our case and cannot thank Jen enough. Jen is Tenacious but at the same time a calming influence. We always felt looked after is how i would best describe our experience. Ultimately the most professional service we could have hoped for!

Charlotte Knappett

Tagged solicitor Charlotte Knappett

Charlotte and her team were efficient, compassionate and supported me through a legal event I had little to no understanding or experience about, which was greatly appreciated. Charlotte went above and beyond chasing the opposing solicitors failure to engage with the online court system and acknowledge documents, ensuring ongoing progress of the case and alleviating stress in a difficult time. Charlottes support and advice allowed me to negotiate a court order I was happy with myself, saving significant costs and allowing both parties to achieve an acceptable outcome without excessive cost.

Orla OConnor

Tagged solicitor Orla OConnor

I would very strongly recommend Stowe Family Law. I have used Stowe for various legal proceedings for children’s and family finance related cases and they have been excellent. Throughout litigation, I have dealt with many members of staff at Stowe and they have all been extremely helpful and competent. I instructed Orla O’Connor for the legal proceedings. Orla is incredibly knowledgable and thorough, offering sound advice and managing my case, which was particularly challenging at times, very professionally. Orla was able to achieve my desired outcome at the final hearing and conclusion of my child order application. I cannot recommend Orla (and Stowe) highly enough !

Cannot speak highly of the team at Rothera Bray Beeston, who helped me along to get my issue resolved. Special mention goes to Jack English, who showed incredible resilience, along with a large dose of patience whilst guiding me along the way, so that the correct result was obtained. Would have no hesitation in recommending this practice for whatever legal service you require. Thank you once more!
