HELP REUNITE ME WITH MY SONS

$215 donated
Given by 6 generous donors in around 5 months

I have been trying to see my son's for the past 2years, I have been fighting for them in court with no success this far. Please help!

Northland

I have only seen my children once in the last 2 years… Briefly for 5 minutes in The Warehouse where they saw me, ran up to me calling “MUMMY!” and threw their arms around me giving me big hugs… They asked if they could come to my house, but were quickly shut down. one is now 9 and the other is now 7 and I miss them so incredibly much.

Yes I have an order allowing me contact with my children “from time to time as agreed between the parties” This worked well in the beginning, but the wording has allowed too much creative interpretation

I fit into the same category as a lot of NZers who are too “rich” for legal aide, but too “poor” to afford astronomical lawyers fees, so I have been trying to represent myself in court throughout this heart-breaking process, but unfortunately I just don’t seem to be getting anywhere.

I am really stuck, which is why I am asking for any contributions you are able to make so I can afford to get some legal assistance, I am awaiting a date for half a day in court where hopefully a decision will be made, but I require a lawyer for this as I am unable to cross examine myself. ANY donation at all would be so gratefully accepted, as every cent will get me closer to being reunited with my boys! Alternatively if you are able to offer your services that would be amazing! All monies will go towards legal costs.

I don’t want to turn this into a negative story about the other party, and having some of my own “family” turn on me in the most unbelievable ways. However I do feel the need to question our own Judicial system, especially the family courts, as obviously parenting orders don’t seem to be worth the paper they are written on, despite lawyer for the children acknowledging my boys want to see their Mummy.

There are always 2 sides to every story, however keeping children from the other parent is simply mean (especially when lawyer for child acknowledges the children want their mum) My heart breaks for you from one mother to another. I too have been thru the court system supporting my brother to see his son. We missed out on our little boy for 9 months. It was one of the hardest times in my life and I will carry it with me always. Sorry it's not much but I wish you well, don't give up x
