Child Abduction

Parental child abduction takes place when a child is taken from the country they live in by one parent without the consent of the other parent. An abduction can also happen if a parent takes a child abroad for an agreed holiday but then refuses to return them at the end of the agreed period.

Child Protection

Care proceedings can be a particularly stressful time for families. At Creighton & Partners we have extensive experience representing parents and wider family members who may be involved in the care of the children.

Types of Order

The main types of orders which the court may make if there are concerns about a child’s welfare are as follows.

Local Authorities

We are experienced in representing a number of Local Authorities in both inner London and surrounding boroughs.

Guardians

Care proceedings can be particularly upsetting and unsettling time for children who may feel that their voices are not.

Child Adoption

We can assist with all aspects of the adoption process, from placement to adoption order.

Parents

We specialise in advising parents, family members and children in all aspects of child protection work.
