Reflecting upon 2025, it has been a very busy year at Longe & Co. One of the many roles we have is to work with parents in care proceedings. This can often be emotionally as well as professionally challenging when dealing with such a complex and varied area of law. Very often the outcome of care proceedings is that children are placed permanently away from their biological family. This is understandably upsetting and traumatic for all concerned.

We are however, ending this year on a high as we were successful in working with a parent who managed to discharge a care order and revoke a placement order. The child was about to be placed for adoption which would have meant an even greater obstacle for the parent to overcome. Just before the child was moved, we issued the application on behalf of our client and after perseverance and a lot of hard work, the Court agreed that it was right for the child to return to the care of its parent. This change in circumstances was down to the huge efforts of the parent to change their life around, the dogged determination of Angela Bell at Longe & Co and a very experienced barrister who fought hard in Court. Hearing the Judge in court revoke these orders will always be remembered as a very precious moment.

We hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas.

A wonderful start to the month to receive such a glowing review from Mr K. It’s always lovely to be appreciated. 💞

“I am writing to express my deepest gratitude for the exceptional legal services you provided throughout my case.
Your unwavering dedication, expertise, and strategic approach were instrumental in securing a favourable outcome.
I greatly appreciate your professionalism, guidance, and commitment to achieving the best possible result.
Thank you both for advocating on my behalf and for your tireless efforts in navigating through a complex legal process.
Your exceptional skills and attention to detail did not go unnoticed and I am truly grateful for everything you have done, representing me and be there for me when I couldn’t be because of logistics and poor internet.
Once again thank you both, I would not hesitate to recommend your services to anyone in need of outstanding legal representation.
And many Thanks for your outstanding work and best advice at time when needed.”

We represent parents and children in public law care proceedings. These are often very distressing and heartbreaking cases and despite our best efforts sadly the outcome is not always positive, and children cannot always be reunited with their families. There are occasions however when a parent can make significant changes to their lifestyle and create loving and stable homes for their children. It is hugely rewarding when this happens as it is always in the best interests of children to grow up with their own families if it is safe for them to do so. On Friday we received a glowing review from a happy mother. Whilst Angela worked extremely hard on this case supporting and advising the client, at the end of the day, it was this mother who turned her life around and now has her children in her care. We are so thrilled for her.
