Family Court

Hello has anyone on here not attended family court? If so how did it go? I am struggling with the constant to and from court. Struggling both mentally and financially to attend. I have always submitted position statements and told the court I won't attend but there is a final hearing due and I honestly feel I can't face it but I am worried if I don't go what will happen. Anyone been in this situation and can give me and help ot advice? Thank you.

Sorry for your situation but please go to the final hearing. I had to suffer three hearings with all sorts of lies being told but at the last one the family judge sorted it out despite the frantic attempts of the barristers to stretch it out for a bit more money.
Take a friend to sit with you outside and maybe go for a coffee or meal afterwards.
This will influence the rest of your life, be there and make sure it is a full and final settlement then get on with the rest of you life.
