[Solved] social services ripped family apart. help please!

I was told this information weeks after the second contact and after being told both contact sessions went well. If they can lie to me they can obviously lie in court it's discussing messing with people's lives how would they like it if the shoes were on the other foot.

And it's not that I'm not listening to you guys, I come on here daily looking for advice which I appreciate very much. However I am being given different advice from the family rights group not to put in for a contact order for reasons which I agree with

I have contacted the mp's office however haven't been able to get an appointment as of yet due to work. I've also asked for a subject access request from cs but there's that many things I have to complain about there's an overspill in my head. There's one good thing I have been keeping a diary so maybe il go down the complaints route and refer to it.

Iv received this letter from cs which was directed to the family rights group.

What options do my and evas family have of contact such as her grandma and great grandma other than court?

what letter have your recieved from CS, and what different advice are you getting from FRG?

I tried attaching but it won't attach it was just a letter reply to the family rights group stating contact not been suspended there not willing to support contact. Whatever that means and that the social services in the first area asked to continue contact but when they recieve vedette police reports at conference they decided not to allow contact anymore or should I say advise against it. The first social services in my area were all for contact with the same information that the new area is against it.

Frg are saying not to take it court yet because they go off what cs say anyway.

?

It would seem to me that there has been a recommendation not to allow contact and your ex is going along with that.

I can't comment on the quality of advice you are receiving from the FRG but I would advise trying to speak with a solicitor about this, many offer free 30 minute consultations. Failing that, why don't you give Coram a call, they offer free legal advice if you are not represented by a solicitor.

It can take a while to get through but they are usually excellent.

As for not applying to a court because they go with what CS say, that's total and utter rubbish. If you already have two different opinions on contact from separate areas of CS, that would be a good indication to me that there should be further investigation. A decent judge will go through all of the CS info, order further reports if necessary and you will be given an opportunity to put your case forward for contact. It won't be an easy process but at the minute, it would seem to be your only option of a way forward.

Give Coram a call on the link above and also google Families Need Fathers, they have a helpline and also run meetings all round the country where you should be able to get some help.

Thankyou. But if I carry on doing what I'm doing. Working full time not contacting her mother etc. I am doing everything they have asked so surely there will be a point where advice on contact will change and if not then I can go down the complaints route which I am already thinking about. Therefore there would be no need to go through the courts as it is social services advising against contact not my daughters mother stopping me....

Also what options do my family have of getting contact
