Also just reading back over your post mine are similar age to
Your kids . My ex said my kids didn’t want to speak to me and I obv said it’s a lie and In submissions explained how it’s her that stops them etc. .magistrates basically said kids are too young to have their wishes and feelings ascertained . So just keep focusing on the kids and prooving to court you’re not a danger etc to them and the ex will hopefully be found out . If you can afford it get a direct access barrister to represent you and do all the litigation stuff yourself like I did . As it’s a dirty fight by the sound of it . You won’t be able to cross examine your ex but your barrister will . The magsitrates won’t try to question her as hard as your representative. My magristrares were really good but I’ve read some are not . The pre hearings are just administrative so you just make sure everyone had all the papers in order etc so you won’t need a barrister for that
