Issue:                                                         Custody / Access

At the time it was agreed he needed the support of his mother and she was granted leave and interim joint custody.

 

 

 

Result:                              With the assistance of a Children=s Wish Assessment and Home Study, it was determined the children were happy with their father in his new home. It was in their best interests they remain with him, with access to the mother.
