Childcare arrangements

[whyohwhy23]

Myself and my ex have separated and are just about to move out. We amicably decided on childcare agreements and signed a form etc.
Since then he has used every opportunity to threaten to tear it up, to take me to court , to move abroad to not pay for the children etc. As well as many many nasty things about me dying.
We obviously cannot do this amicably going forward and I do not want to live my life afraid of his threats.
If I were to go to a family law solicitor what would the process be? How do we get the agreement formalised etc to stop his threats.

Also do I have tell him I'm going to see a solicitor?

You can't force him to have contact with the children but you can force him to pay. I'm still going through all this shit op it's draining isn't it. Contact cms first thing in the morning. Save your money don't bother with the solicitors if he isn't willing to be a parent you can't make him. Maybe you could ask for mediation though.

You can’t, even if you went to court he doesn’t have to stick to it you just need to make the children available on those days, no consequences for him not sticking to it

Sorry to hear you are in this situation OP.

You can get your agreement rubber-stamped (so to speak) by a family court and then there would be consequences if he did not adhere to this.

Also, no, you do not have to inform him you are going to see a solicitor. Perhaps pay for a consultation session with a solicitor and get some advice.

Good luck with it all.

My sis got a contact order in place through the courts. She’s a lot happier now and no longer faces threats by her ex. Start CMS application today. Call them up and they will give you the ref number you need.
