Cafcass Guardians report is full of lies.. scared

[TishaMelissa]

Final hearing coming up.
Domestic abuse has occurred and been established in proceedings.
Psychologist assessment states supervised contact to continue until father completes necessary work and course therapists and facilitators provide positive feedback then contact can progress to unsupervised.
Cafcass guardian has produced a report completely full of lies where the focus is primarily on my mental health and anxieties. She's completely in love with my ex because all he does is cry. She's fabricated conversations that we've had that never took place. She's recommended that contact fast track to unsupervised because she believes I will frustrate contact etc. Never happened, no evidence to substantiate this at all.
I'm scared. I'm well represented but still v scared.

Highlight any lies. Speak to your solicitor.. I exposed the guardian my dc's had who admitted on the stand his 4 year's case report was based on' facts' from exh. He even told exh court ordered private details of the dna testing...

You’re probably right to be scared, unfortunately.

Although nowhere near as serious as you’ve described, the CAFCASS rep I had made up a whole conversation under oath. Literally complete fabrication! My barrister did, I felt, a reasonable job of showing up her inconsistencies.

However, the panel of magistrates emphasised in their summing up that she’d been “entirely truthful” and had done a “very good job and should be commended!”

My solicitor had said that the Family Courts (particularly the magistrates) will pretty much blindly follow CAFCASS recommendations and won’t criticise, or listen to criticism of, them. But it was still a shock to experience it firsthand, particularly as it carried such weight in the proceedings.

I don’t know what to suggest, OP, other than to make sure you evidence as much as you can and make sure your barrister / solicitor has all the background and an opportunity to cross examine her in court.

She's a liar, she's just made up conversations completely.

I'm confident with my representation. Our judge has departed from the cafcass recommendations before at our first hearing.

This is why I recommend recording any conversations with Cafcass and telling them why at the start. Too many seem poorly trained and vulnerable to having wool pulled over their eyes.

Conversations with who?

Following

Conversations with me. She's made a huge amount of assumptions in her report which are not based on fact at all.

Then your solicitor needs to say those conversations never happened.

What crabs I had the same happened to me and my solicitor done just as you said to do and the judge agreed but did nothing about it as we proved the inconvenience and none fact but it still hot egnord
