Claims Against Social Services

Social Services have a duty of care to protect vulnerable members of society, including children. Unfortunately, social services can often get things drastically wrong, often failing to intervene to protect a child despite clear indicators of potential risk.

Farleys Solicitors are specialists in assisting people with claims against local authorities throughout the UK and have helped many people who have suffered at the hands of social services.  Even if the events occurred several years, or even decades ago, our team may still be able to help you with a claim.

If you have been subjected to any form of mistreatment by social services, either in a recent case or in the past, our expert solicitors can help you to pursue a compensation claim. To speak to a solicitor who specialises in claims against social services, call 0125 460 6090, or alternatively, you can email us. All enquiries are treated with the strictest confidence.

  • Abuse claims against a social worker

  • Negligence of social services
  • Disputes with social services in relation to care proceedings

Contact a Solicitor to Sue Social Services

If you feel that you have been poorly treated by social services or have suffered as a result of the negligence of a social worker or the service as a whole, our solicitors will be able to advise you as to whether you may be able to make a claim for compensation.

Farleys Solicitors may be able to pursue your claim with Legal Aid funding under our Actions Against Detaining Authorities (AADA) franchise. Alternatively, we may be able to pursue your claim on a no win no fee basis. Either way, our experienced and understanding lawyers will be able to help.
