This is 2 children i raised from hospital now 6 years later. We have done everything. Yet this mother does not contribute. The children os autistic and fetal alcohol syndrome. And more. Because of drug misuse. She only has rights. I already spend almost R in legal fees just to keep the children save. Now we are off to the family advocate.
I want to put a civil claim against a group that accused me of doing something and at the end when they were questioned, they admitted that it was just a rumor heard from friends and I want to teach them a lesson as I nearly lost my job and this has tainted my name. I will forward any proof on email if I get the email address.
My child is in foster care with my parents de to substance abuse for 2years, I did go to a rehabilitation center, I am sober minded, I have a stable life where my son can stay with his stepfather. I have enough funds to look after him and put him into school. But the problem is that my mother has not been honest with the social workers and they can no longer take care of him as my parents are retired.
I tried to get a devorce since Jan (9years), the last 7 years Legal Aid didn't do anything.It's a contested devorce with no assets, no children ,my husband is engaged for the second time after our separation.He refuses to sign.A protection order was granted in my favour in .He only has to sign, and the court have to give me a court date.Iqualified for Legal Aid assistance because of my poor salary, please help!!
I applied for an interim protection order on 27/12/24. I reached out to a social worker to initiate supervised visitation for my youngest son with the respondent. She advised me on a lawyer to use. I went to court today for the return date. The lawyer told me that he doesn't need to be present and I got bombarded with questions about visitation from his lawyer, playing it off as though I have been using the protection order to prohibit him seeing his son. The protection order concluded violent behaviour and intimidation, with mention of financial abuse - drinking and driving then taking it out on me as to be at fault for not allowing it, breaking my window at home because I refused him entry after making it clear I wanted him to leave to avoid fighting (both my children were present here), and following me to a pet sitting client home on Christmas day and then climbing over their wall and their security company being called out by neighbours (only my youngest was present here), he previously sent me a number of legal letters making false claims against me even saying I was withholding his child and parental alienating his child from him to which I had to respond every time. I had to call police to remove him on all three occasions because he just refused to leave. I informed the lawyer and he hasn't called me back yet. I'm not sure what to do. I wasn't aware that I was supposed to ask the children's court to make supervised visitation court ordered supervised. I would appreciate if someone could call me to advise me on what to do and how to handle this matter, and help me with representation in court next week Monday. I really do fear for my safety and that of both my children.

Grown from RK to close to R1m because of 2% incedental agreement interest from a JV where we supplied the hotel, Hyatt, with an oven. Our contribution in the JV was the delivery of the oven, but the other partner defrauded us. The debtor also promised to sell their house and signed another AOD to that effect, but frustrated their own chosen estate agent. Case Background: This is one of 7–8 cases where summons have already been issued. We were on the verge of obtaining a default judgment when the "fraudster" pleaded for an opportunity to negotiate a new payment plan. As part of this arrangement, they committed to selling their house, and a new Acknowledgment of Debt (AOD) was signed, explicitly including this promise. However, they later frustrated the process by obstructing their own chosen estate agent. Given this, their request for a court-sanctioned sale of the property is no longer a viable option. Outcome Sought: We request that the court proceed with selling the property on their behalf. Payment: 1) 15-20% Profit share + very marginal or small admin fee by lawyer 2) Normal Payment
