Advice for Grandparents

Family break ups can be heart breaking but if you are a grandparent you may feel powerless when it comes to seeing your grandchildren.

If you are struggling to get contact with your grandchild following a separation or for another reason we can work with you and guide you through the steps you can take to establish, or re-establish contact.

Similarly, if Social Services are involved with your grandchild or there are concerns about the ability of your son or daughter to care for your grandchild we can advise you on the law regarding your rights and the steps you need to take if you wish to take over the care of your grandchild, including adoption and special guardianship.

Our family team combine a wealth of experience dealing with contested matters and Court proceedings with a Resolution accreditation and a commitment to looking at alternative methods of resolving issues, which is often in the best interests of a child as it saves the stress and confrontation of Court proceedings.
