Specialist legal services for children and families
We want the children and families that we represent to live fulfilled lives.
At L J Collins Solicitors, we are Family Lawyers who specialise in child care proceedings. We work with complex family matters that often involve children and young people being taken into the care of the local authority. These are often extremely challenging and sensitive times for parents and families, and it is crucial that parents have legal representation with the necessary experience and expertise to advise them throughout the process. However, it is equally important that solicitors are caring and empathetic while remaining determined and committed to achieving the most appropriate outcomes for parents and families.

Why choose LJC to represent you?
Making sure that we place you at the centre of what we do is a reflection of our values and ethos at LJC. Our Solicitors will be there to manage all aspects of your case. Our experience enables us to know when to work collaboratively with other services and when to resolutely represent the interests of you and your family throughout the proceedings and in court.
We recognise the disruption and complications endured by parents and the extended family when they find themselves needing legal representation. As such, we aim to resolve matters at the earliest opportunity whilst keeping you up to date and clear on the next steps of the process. It is important to us that parents/carers are able to make informed decisions and are clear about expectations and processes, so we work hard to make complex and challenging matters as accessible as possible for our clients. This includes recommending therapeutic services and interventions.
At LJC, we appreciate the value of culture and difference and make efforts that our team reflect the community that they serve. This includes providing interpreter services, recognising and respecting the faith commitments of our clients and working tirelessly to create a service where people from all backgrounds and cultures feel welcomed and supported by LJC Solicitors.
