Family

We are holders of the Specialist Quality Mark (SQM) which was introduced in 2002 as a quality management system for legal aid providers. Our Child Care Law department approaches each case with a level of understanding only achievable through specialising in Child Care law. We can act for you whether your case is involving social services, or a private law matter, it is important to be represented by those who understand how the law may affect you and your family.

We advise and represent parents, other family members, children and Children’s Guardians in all Public Law proceedings. These include proceedings where the Local Authority have applied for Emergency Protection Orders, Care Orders or where parents apply for contact with children in care and discharge of Care Orders. We can also advise and assist where children are voluntarily accommodated and will attend Child Protection Conferences. We are there to support parents and provide them with advice and help during this difficult time.

At Richard J Knaggs & Co Solicitors we are members of the Law Society Children and Family Panel and of Resolution (formerly known as the Solicitors Family Law Association).

By adhering to standards we agree to, provide good levels of client care and have systems in place to ensure delivery of good quality advice. Compliance with a recognised quality standard (currently either the SQM or Lexcel, The Law Society’s practice management standard) is a requirement for organisations that have, or are seeking to obtain, an LAA contract to deliver legal advice services. We are currently working towards Lexcel accreditation which is the Law Society’s Practice Management System and which will drive up our client care standards even further.
