CMS Lies

Hi Advice please. I am the PP was RP for 13 years with a court order. Children older and swapped where they wanted to be as I am in a LT relationship and live together. I requested a MRC after CMS decision as RP said I have less than 103 nights. I challenged this and sent dates of previous and planned contact. Received a letter saying RP denied this and only 1 night per week + 37 additional. Also untrue as 3 nights a fortnight + extra. This Summer I have had 21 additional nights. They want evidence such as a letter from a solicitor but not clear what that means. If not they take RP word. Not sure what to do. Frustrating thing is I never went to CMS to maintain a reasonable relationship. RP now getting nearly double what they paid me for 2 children for 1. Can I go now to a solicitor or is it a tribunal?

You will need a proper child arrangement order signed by a court if you are disputing the number of nights. Not sure what you think going to a tribunal will achieve, it's your word against RP and without child arrangement order CMS will believe the RP as they've stated. Hope the LTR is worth it! Clearly your kids don't like your partner.
