I am not the parent, but a child from my family has been taken into social services care - what can I do about this?

If you are a relative other than a parent, such as an aunt or uncle, or grandparent, you may still be able to take part in a case (although you would not be automatically entitled to free legal representation). We can advise you on your position, and what would be the best action to take, including what support you might be able to find for yourself.

With our team of specialist children’s lawyers, who are on the Law Society’s children panel, we are here to help every step of the way.
