For anyone who needs to take legal advice about their children, it is almost always a distressing, emotional and traumatic time. We pride ourselves on the fact that we have years of experience dealing with some of the most complicated cases involving children. Whatever your circumstances, whatever your concerns and whatever your fears, you can be certain of receiving honest, straightforward and pragmatic answers to your questions.  

Issues for children range from separating parents, residence and contact with absent family, whether that be mums, dads, grandparents, or even brothers and sisters. 

Disputes can arise concerning which school a child should attend, within which religion they should be brought up or even in which country they should live.

 When relationships break down, children are often at the centre. The emphasis at J.A. Walker Solicitor is to achieve the right result for individual children and their very individual circumstances. If we can resolve matters without the need for Court proceedings this is always the best for all involved, however, if matters cannot be resolved by agreement and have to be determined by the Court, you can rest assured that you will have an expert team to represent you throughout the whole process. 

We also deal with complicated children law matters. We can advise you about children and adoption. We have experience dealing with children cases with an international element. We have extensive experience dealing with cases where children have suffered abuse, neglect or harm. 

Parents can also receive advice about their rights and associated responsibilities when it comes to children. We can advise grandparents and other family members about Orders they can obtain to support the ones they love. 

We have experience dealing with children disputes as a result of divorces, separations and for same sex couples.  

We are pleased to offer a FREE 2O MINUTE CONSULATION to discuss any aspect of child law. We can point you in the right direction and provide you with practical advice about how to resolve a matter quickly and easily. If you wish to instruct us, we can then discuss how best to progress your case and achieve what you believe is the best outcome for your child or a child in your family.
