Children Barristers

Our 3PB Direct specialists are recognised and respected by clients for offering legal expertise across the whole spectrum of child law issues. We provide advice to individuals in cases ranging from high profile to more straightforward disputes and our barristers appear regularly in all levels of the Family court and appellant court.

Our barristers have extensive experience dealing with cross-border disputes involving the movement of children, jurisdictional conflicts and ‘stranded spouses’ cases.

We are regularly instructed in cases involving child abduction and relocation. All of our barristers are familiar with cases invoking the 1980 and 1996 Hague Convention, Brussels II Revised. We also have considerable experience in non-Hague convention cases.

We can advise you on all issues concerning the law and your children including:

• Wardship
• Residence
• Contact
• Prohibited Steps
• LGBT Parenting
• Specific Issue
• Leave to Remove
• Parental Responsibility
• Special Guardianship
• Human Rights
• Parental Alienation
• Cross Jurisdictional Issues
• Injunctions to protect from domestic violence
• Injunctions and remedies for the protection of personal property

We are sensitive to dealing with parents and children in what can often be difficult and upsetting circumstances. We will always seek pragmatic solutions.

Care and adoption

Please note that cases involving care and adoption are generally not suitable for instructing a barrister direct generally. A family solicitor is usually best placed to help you with these issues. Nonetheless our 3PB Direct barrister, who has a unique knowledge of solicitors specialising in care and adoption, can help recommend a suitable solicitor if you need this assistance.
