Understanding Care Proceedings

If social services have concerns about a child’s safety or well-being, they may start care proceedings, a legal process that assesses the child’s home environment and future welfare. If your child is in care and you’re unsure about your rights or what to do next, our experienced solicitors are here to provide clear advice and support.
