Specialists In Family-Related Public Law Cases
Urgent Support For Emergency Legal Situations
Guidance Through Public Law Outline Processes
Expert Public Law Solicitors
We specialise in representing parents and family members in proceedings involving the Local Authority, including:
​
Care Proceedings
If you are informed that the Local Authority intends to issue care proceedings, it is essential to seek immediate legal advice. Early representation ensures that your rights are protected from the outset.
​
Emergency Protection Orders (EPOs) and Police Protection Orders (PPOs)
If an Emergency Protection Order is being sought or the Police have exercised their powers of protection, urgent legal advice is crucial. Immediate intervention can significantly affect the outcome of your case.
​
Public Law Outline (PLO) – Pre-Proceedings
If you receive a pre-proceedings letter (also known as a “letter before proceedings”), contact us without delay. One of our experienced solicitors will explain your rights and options and guide you carefully through the PLO process.
Placement Order Applications
If you are notified that an application for a Placement Order is being made, you should obtain legal advice immediately. We will provide clear advice and strong representation throughout the proceedings.
