Thank you all for your replies.
My legal representation is firm on their belief there is a conflict of interest and are encouraging me to push it, the fathers representation is saying there’s not and have became quite hostile and aggressive in their approach.
I am worried my three kids will be overlooked as first priority if I push for a conflict of interest amd become involved in a battle of lawyers.
The latest FVO has expired oct 2019 but that full order is what ceased the fathers contact with the children now aged 8, 12, 14. In 2020 his lawyer and I agreed weekly FaceTime visitation would commence but moving forward to physical contact it would be supervised visitation at a contact centre, but covid delayed this until March this year, as contact centres were closed.
In December the father filed with the federal circuit court claiming I was withholding the children for no reason and that the children had never been listed on a FVO.
He has submitted 3 affidavits all of which have different claims and some the complete opposite of what was said in the one before. He is now resorting to outright lies in the latest one and using my brothers criminal history
Some I can prove a lie and some I can’t.
Am I better off getting my legal rep to focus on proving perjury rather than a conflict of interest?
Thank you in advance for any further assistance.
