Public Law Children Matters

There are times when social services become involved in the lives of private individuals as there is a concern about a child and that child’s safety. Sometimes those concerns are well founded, but at times those concerns are not.

In those circumstances, we have a team of experienced practitioners who are able to assist parents and members of their extended family, to work with social services and local authorities and provide advice about the options available to you both before and after any Court proceedings.

We can assist with:

  • Child protection
  • Care and supervision orders
  • Adoption
  • Contact with children in care
  • Representation of children

Janice Courtenay

I had been worrying for a very long time over the need to alter my Will. I had many different problems that I needed to sort out before actually deciding how to compile my new Will. Janice visited me at home, we had a lengthy discussion over different issues and she helped me greatly to sort out my concerns. Janice started the process after discussion and after considering her first draft, I was able to make clear decisions on my final wishes and was able to make amendments to arrive at my final Will. I was very grateful for her help and advice.
