[Solved] Recent separation

Hi hth, how is your situation now?

Arranged by family to see my son yesterday as it was his birthday. She called the police to kick me and my mother out.
Not once we were asked to leave by instead police were called secretly.

Now I have arranged an appointment with mediator to see if they can help @ a cost of £90 per session.

Otherwise Ive been advised to apply for child contact through application C11 for but my financial situation are not great to afford barristors fee.

Thank you guys for your advice

That’s awful! Why would she want to spoil her child’s birthday like that.

Mediation is required before an application for a Child Arrangements Order can be made. If it fails or she refuses to attend, the mediator will sign the C100 form to enable you to apply to court.

It’s possible to represent yourself in family court, which brings the costs right down... its a £215 court fee, but that’s the only payment. We will do what we can to advise and support you, it’s doable and we have had many members go it alone with much success.

You might like to attend a Families Need Fathers meeting in your area, where you’ll get face to face support and advice from others in a similar situation. Here’s a link to their website where you’ll find details of meetings nationally, hopefully there will be one near you.

Hello
Thanks for support guys.
Update:
My mediation appointment is not due for 2 weeks as they are busy.
Meanwhile, I have received courts order of ‘ non-molestation’ from my ex wife which states number of restrictions to me such as:
1) not to contact her in any means
2) not to go near her upto 100m
3) not to threaten her or use any violence

In her statement shes made many false alligations of domestic violence and making threats to her.

I dont have any history of violence and never made any threats. Does the court believe in such allegations for serving me this order.

It does say i can appeal for this order to be removed within two days.

This means shes made it even more difficult for me to see my son. If I am not allowed to contact her or see her that means wont br able to see my son.

Any advice will be appreciated.
Should i instruct a solicitor/barristor now.
Next hearing is on Thursday 13th June 2019.
Any recommendations of a barristor is appreciated in my area. Wembley/Southall West London

Thank you all

Hi there

If there hasn’t been any domestic violence and she is making false allegations, perhaps it would be wise to appeal it.

What I find strange... when a non mol has been issued, it’s the courts responsibility to set a further hearing for the person served with the NMO, to be able to respond to the allegations made about them. Has that not happened in your case? You could call the court and ask them about it.
