Experienced Child Law Solicitors in London

Our London child law solicitors have extensive experience in handling a wide range of private children law matters under the Children Act 1989. We regularly assist clients across London and throughout the UK with complex child-related disputes, including applications before the Family Court.

We understand that every family situation is unique. Our solicitors provide clear legal advice, strategic guidance, and strong representation to help you achieve the best possible outcome for your child.

Our child law services include:

Child Arrangements Orders
Specific Issue Orders
Prohibited Steps Orders
Parental Responsibility Disputes
Relocation of Children within the UK or Abroad
International Child Abduction Matters
Grandparents’ Rights Applications
Enforcement of Child Arrangements Orders
Emergency Applications involving Child Welfare
Schooling and Medical Treatment Disputes

Domestic Abuse Cases involving Children
Social Services and Local Authority Involvement
Child Arrangements Orders

If parents cannot agree where a child should live or how much time a child should spend with each parent, our specialist child law solicitors can assist with Child Arrangements Orders. We aim to resolve disputes amicably through negotiation and mediation where possible. However, when necessary, we provide strong representation in Family Court proceedings.

Our solicitors help clients secure arrangements that promote stability, welfare, and meaningful relationships for children.

Specific Issue Orders

A Specific Issue Order may be necessary when parents disagree on an important aspect of a child’s upbringing, such as:

Education or school choice
Medical treatment
Religious upbringing
Travel arrangements
Change of surname

Our experienced child law solicitors in London can advise you on whether a Specific Issue Order application is appropriate and represent you throughout the legal process.

Prohibited Steps Orders

A Prohibited Steps Order prevents a parent or another person from taking certain actions concerning a child without the court’s permission. These orders are commonly sought to prevent:

Removal of a child from the UK
Unauthorised school changes
Harmful contact arrangements
Relocation without consent

At Premium Solicitors, we understand the urgency often involved in these matters and can provide prompt legal assistance for emergency applications.

Parental Responsibility Disputes

Parental responsibility gives an individual legal rights and responsibilities relating to a child’s upbringing. Disputes concerning parental responsibility can arise between parents, step-parents, grandparents, or other family members.

Our specialist child law solicitors provide clear legal guidance regarding parental responsibility agreements and court applications.

International Child Relocation and Child Abduction

International child relocation cases can be legally complex and emotionally difficult. If one parent wishes to relocate abroad with a child, court permission may be required if consent is not obtained from everyone with parental responsibility.

We also assist clients in urgent international child abduction matters, including applications under the Hague Convention.

Our experienced London child law solicitors provide strategic advice and urgent representation in these highly sensitive cases.

Child Law and Domestic Abuse

Child law issues often arise alongside domestic abuse allegations. Our family law solicitors provide compassionate and confidential legal support where child welfare concerns involve:

Domestic violence
Emotional abuse
Coercive or controlling behaviour
Allegations of harm
Safeguarding concerns

We can assist with urgent protective applications, including Non-Molestation Orders and Occupation Orders where appropriate.
