PLEASE can somebody help me. I have returned form Australia with my 19 month old son in February. He was born in Australia. I have suffered domestic abuse and I have discovered my ex - partner is an Injecting drug user and alcoholic. He is also on the brink of insolvency. He continues to send me threatening emails and text messsages. I have been served with hague Convention papers and I am attending the high court in London on Thursday. I do not qualify for legal aid as my dad left me some money when he died. I know there is a chance I will be sent back. I am hoping that the fact that he cannot support us on my return will help me. Does anybody have any advice? he has told me he will apply for custody of my son and has already set these motions in place.
He is angry I will not consider reconcilliation and never asks about our son and refuses to pay child support. I am very affected by all this and spend all my time in constant turmoil. I am desperate. I am worried that all my money will be used in the case here and will not have anything if I am deported. If I sign everything over to my son will I be able to get legal aid? In Australia the legal aid system is different and to get good representation I need a good lawyer. PLEASE can anybody help me??
