Change of Residency Secured in Complex Children Act Case

A significant outcome has been achieved in the Family Court following Children Act proceedings led by our family solicitor, Georgia Jones.

Georgia acted on behalf of an applicant seeking a change of residency for a child amid serious safeguarding concerns. The case involved detailed evidence and careful consideration of the child’s welfare with the local authority supporting the application. 12 months after the initial application was made, the matter concluded at a final hearing where the Family Court made a final order confirming that the child should live with the applicant.

This positive result provides the child with stability and security moving forward, demonstrating the importance of robust legal representation in sensitive and complex family matters.
