Well... I got shafted and screwed left and right from just about every firm I encountered in Melbourne.
My mother is taking me to the family court this Tuesday demanding I SIGN 100% of my home to her. I've somehow become the first kid in the country to be in a PROPERTY SEPARATION with a parent. Even though these things by law can ONLY happen between SPOUSES.
I was told by everyone (given my documents and evidence) I should go for a Summary Dismissal as she has no financial or legal rights to my home. Aside from that, our strict gifting laws do not allow for someone to want gifts back after their relationship turns sour.
Problem is I couldn't pay anyone. I plan on selling my home and moving far far away from Victoria (this state blows) and are willing to have my house caveated and sold as soon as the case is settled. I have enough for a $2,000 retainer and that's it. I'm only 23 and aren't loaded for cash like most of you 30-40yr olds are.
This is not fair and I don't want to lose my home simply because my mother has more money than me to pay someone in a suit to speak for me.
I'm beyond desperate now and don't know what to do. There are duty VLA lawyers there but they already told me that they cannot help.
I guess I'll be sleeping in a cardboard box outside the Federal Circuit Court after Tuesday. Sleeping in the trunk of my car was hard enough once. I lost that car and now cannot imagine what sleeping in the city in a box would be like. I don't suppose anyone here has experienced that at any stage? I'll admit, I've already attempted suicide three times last year. I think becoming homeless simply because I was too poor to fight for my rights is more than enough of a reason to 'end it'.
