Public Law/Care Proceedings
Specialist Public Law and Care Proceedings Solicitors
At A L Law Associates, we provide expert advice and representation for parents, children, and extended family members involved in child protection cases, commonly referred to as care proceedings.
If social services have concerns about your child’s welfare—whether due to allegations of neglect or risk of harm—it’s crucial to seek legal advice early. Our experienced care proceedings solicitors are here to guide you through every stage, ensuring you fully understand the process and your options both before and during court proceedings.
Our accredited Children Panel solicitors are equipped to handle even the most complex cases, including:
- Allegations of physical injury, such as shaken baby syndrome
- Cases involving undiagnosed medical conditions mistaken for signs of abuse
- Allegations of sexual or emotional abuse
- Other sensitive or high-stakes child protection matters
We work with families facing all types of challenges, providing urgent action when needed. Listening to your concerns, we offer tailored, practical advice to help you take the necessary steps forward. Our public law solicitors are highly experienced and will stand by you throughout the process, no matter how complex or difficult the circumstances.
Our team includes members of the Association of Lawyers for Children, the Children Panel, and Resolution. We represent parents, court-appointed Guardians, children, extended family members, and local authorities in matters involving Special Guardianship and adoption.
At A L Law Associates, we can secure non-means-tested Legal Aid for children involved in care proceedings or for parents with parental responsibility. Where appropriate, we can also assist other parties in seeking public funding to participate in these cases.
