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

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.
