Care Proceedings
Child Services can request that the court look at a child’s situation and decide if the child needs a legal order to protect their safety.
Free, no obligation discussion
Contact us for a free initial, no obligation discussion to assess your needs and the best way forward.
We represent and advise children, either directly or through their court appointed guardians, and their parents and family on all areas of the care procedural process, from the initial review of the child’s situation, the legal requirements should they be moved into care as well as where an adult is seeking to reconnect with a child who has been in care.
Children in this situation can be incredibly vulnerable and their guardians need to receive the best legal support and advice and we at Powellslaw can ensure its handled professionally and respectfully.
It is important to make sure our client’s requirements are understood, that communication is easy and clear and that we are flexible in organising how we work to meet your needs. To us, being friendly and supportive is as important as being accurate and reliable. Our commitment to quality client service is why we are one of the leading firms in North Somerset and continue to be trusted legal advisers for local and national clients.
