Children's Rights & Protection
Children at risk, children in conflict with the law, guardianship, abuse response and child-sensitive justice.
Overview
Children require legal processes designed around their age, safety and best interests. We represent children and the adults protecting them, and we work with child protection actors to keep proceedings safe and dignified.
Our approach is trauma-informed: we coordinate with caregivers, social services and specialised support so that legal action does not compound harm.
Scope of work
- Care, custody, guardianship and maintenance
- Representation of children in conflict with the law
- Response to abuse, neglect, exploitation and trafficking
- Protection and safety orders
