Hatch Brenner’s Family Law experts can guide you through the legal processes and help sort out important matters such as financial settlements and issues relating to children.

We also advise on other types of family problems. A child may have been taken into care by a local authority, for example; or an emergency Court Order may be needed as a protection against domestic violence. We will ensure that your case is handled with the utmost sensitivity at what is likely to be a stressful time.

Hatch Brenner has two specialist solicitors on the Law Society’s children’s panel. They are able to offer legal representation to children, parents, relatives and local authorities in care cases, child protection investigations and emergency applications, together with advice on parents’ and children’s rights. The department also advises and acts in adoption proceedings. The firm has a public funding franchise, and, in most care cases, legal aid is free to all parents and children
