GET THE HELP YOU NEED BEFORE, DURING, AND AFTER CARE PROCEEDINGS
If Social Services has contacted you regarding the welfare of your child, you’ll need representation – and you’ll need it quickly. The decision to remove a child from their family is not usually made lightly but can be made whether you attend scheduled meetings and court hearings or not. That's why having a team of solicitors to advocate on your behalf is crucial.
​
At MI Banks Solicitors, we’ll provide constant support and guidance to ensure your rights and the best interests of your child are protected. Whether you’re a parent or guardian, we’ll accompany you to meetings, represent you in court, and advise you regarding any reports or agreements you’re asked to sign. You deserve to be represented, no matter what.
Guiding you through your legal journey
WHAT TO EXPECT DURING CARE PROCEEDINGS
Facing care proceedings can be a daunting task, especially when you don’t understand the legal process. We’re here to break down the legal jargon, so you can get a better idea of what to expect.
​
If Social Services has started care proceedings in court, you can expect several hearings where the case will be reviewed and decisions regarding the welfare of the child will be made. These hearings provide an opportunity for all parties involved to make their case, and it’s here that our solicitors will represent your interests and advocate for a favourable outcome. Under Public Law, all proceedings will be completed within 26 weeks, so contacting us as soon as possible is of the utmost importance.
