Family & Child Care Proceedings

Children's welfare comes first - and that means handling issues with care and sensitivity.

But you also want the reassurance of specialist lawyers to advise you and help you take the right action.

We can advise you on:

  • Adoption
  • Care Proceedings
  • Supervision Orders
  • Parental Responsibility Agreements
  • Residence and Contact Proceedings

Our department is made up of lawyers with a reputation for professionalism and approachability – they are experts in the legal issues relating to children and parents.

The service can help you agree arrangements for financial support, for where children will live and for how contact will be organised. Wherever possible, our lawyers will work with you to negotiate these arrangements amicably. Where that is not possible, they will guide you through court proceedings.

The team can also advise and represent you through the process of applying for Special Court Orders, in disputes over upbringing, in social services issues and with adoption.


Do not hesitate to contact us to find out more about our services.
