The Redcar-based firm is a leading provider of legal services for children and families. The Children Law Accreditation provides a recognised quality standard for practitioners representing children in children law proceedings and is a means to identify suitably qualified practitioners when representation of a child is required.

Receipt of the Children Law Accreditation means she is now able to provide a holistic family-offer, meeting the needs of those with a range of legal needs.”
