The law surrounding same-sex parents can be complicated, which is why working with a team like Brockbanks Solicitors can make all the difference. We encourage couples to seek full legal advice when considering raising a child, so that parents can ensure that they’re fully aware of their legal rights, whilst considering what’s best for the child/children.

You will need to consider factors like who will have parental responsibility, the role that a child’s biological parents will play, and the legal impact of adoption. As specialists in LGBT family law, these are considerations we can support with, in addition to legal conditions such as the rights of same-sex female couples compared with those of same-sex male couples. Simply get in touch with our team to discuss your issue.LGBT servicesWork with our mediators
