Family Care - Public Law

Children’s care issues can present the court with the most challenging decisions of all. When a child is placed into care by Social Services, the child’s welfare will be the over-riding factor for the court when determining their future.

At Ramsdens we have one of the most experienced specialist teams in the region who provide sensitive, practical and expert advice during care proceedings. Our team specialise in all aspects of children's law and can assist you with any legal issues arising out of care proceedings

Working closely with Cafcass (Children and Family Court Advisory and Support Service) and others (including local authority, social services and other authorised bodies) we can advise you on your rights and help you work out the options going forward.

Our team can offer advice and representation in all areas of children law including:


  • Residential/ Parental Responsibility

  • Contact

  • Special Guardianships Orders

  • Care Orders and Emergency Protection Orders, including emergency hearings

  • Supervision Orders

  • Secure Accommodation Orders

  • Child Protection Investigation.


In most care proceedings, parents are entitled to free legal aid and at Ramsdens we offer a free initial appointment to assess you for Public Funding (Legal Aid).
