Care Proceedings

Few things are as terrifying for a parent as the involvement of social services, who are making allegations as to the care of, neglect of or unexplained injuries to their children. What are your rights? What are the procedures? Is the local authority dealing with matters properly? Can they remove your children from their home?

If you are a grandparent or family member and you’ve recently discovered that the social services are involved with your family, we may be able to offer you advice also.

If you are a parent and social services have either started court proceedings or indicated that they are thinking of doing so, you will qualify for free legal aid. If on the other hand, you are not a parent you may be eligible. We will assist in completing your application. If you do not qualify for legal aid we will discuss with you the private funding of your case.
