Although we typically aim to avoid court where possible, we can support you throughout court proceedings should it be necessary to protect your child from abduction and abuse. Our dedicated specialists are available to clients across March, Wisbech and wider Cambridgeshire, Lincolnshire and Norfolk to assist in resolving children’s matters whilst protecting their best interests.

Child Law Solicitor Near Me

Bowsers Solicitors have been working with families for many years in various matters, including contact matters, residence, parental responsibility and more specific issues.

Our experienced team abides by Resolution’s Code of Conduct, meaning we prioritise negotiation and mediation to resolve all matters. With this, we do all we can to avoid the family court. This helps to keep costs to a minimum, speed up the process and, in most cases, will make for a far more amicable situation.

We always recommend seeking legal advice at an early stage in the dispute. However, even when this happens, family court is not always avoidable. Nevertheless, we have the means to support you through the court process and will do all we can to achieve a favourable outcome.
