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.

Kiran Bains

Tagged solicitor Kiran Bains

Jenna Oglesby was always willing to take my phone calls when available to do so and reply to emails regarding a purchase that fell through at the last minute, then a purchase I made whilst renting that property. Going through separation and divorce with three young children, securing property has never been more important or more stressful than this last year or so. I felt in such safe hands with Jenna and reassurances she gave me all the way through a very long process. Thank you without end.

Tom Killick

Tagged solicitor Tom Killick

I sought legal advice from Jacob and Reeves for family disputes and children arrangements. Tom Killick was amazing. I can not praise him enough. He was very professional and always had time for my case. He listened and understood straight away what i was seeking for my children. I couldn't survive this highly stressful time without Tom Killick's expertise. I would highly recommend anyone seeking legal representation to go to Jacob and Reeves. I couldn't fault them at all. By far the best solicitor practice and solicitor I have ever known.

Merlene George

Tagged solicitor Merlene George

I had a 30-minute fixed-fee family consultation with Merlene online to discuss considerations around an amicable separation and divorce. Merlene was professional and helpful; she listened well and was calm and clear when explaining the process and legal considerations. She promptly followed up with attendance notes. I came away from the call feeling calmer, more informed and reassured as result.

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.
