Hi i have recently split up from my partner and we have a 1 year old baby girl. We ended as it was not good for baby with arguing and fall outs on a regular basis. I work 4 days a week and have 4 days off. I want my baby on the days off i have but she is making it increasingly difficult and wont give me her bank details so that i can give her money for maintenance. What do i do?? is there any way i can get to have her on my days off? i have no convictions and i have never been violent towards her. I paid all bills on house and it was in my name she has left to her fathers. What do i do?! Any help would be great...
Hi Mike,
I think you should consider Mediation, this is the first step for separated parents with contact issues. Apart from trying to resolve your differences this way the only other option is to go to court for shared residence with defined contact, or a contact order. This can be costly if you don't represent yourself, and often the contact awarded is not split 50 /50 so you might find because of the young age of your child you will end up with a lot less contact than you wanted. Here's a link to the Mediation website
