Hi everyone. Hope you can help me. Sorry this is very long winded. but I am really struggling to get anywhere.
I am from the UK and I lived in Sydney, Australia for 3.5 years from February 2012-August 2015. The last 18 months of my travels, I was with an Australian man. We tried for a baby for about 6 months and I finally fell pregnant. Unfortunately, my partner was not supportive and quickly turned against me.
So I flew back to England to be with my family. We said we would stay in contact and I would fly back to Australia once our son was born.
I quickly found out after getting back to England that he had a new partner. He instantly blocked me off all social media and changed his contact number and moved house. However I do have his new address.
Since being back in England I have had a constant battle on my hands. My son's father is constantly denying paternity by refusing to do a DNA test. I have even gone to his mother and offered a grandparent DNA test but again...once the ball gets rolling they cut me off and ignore me.
My ex just won't let me do a DNA test.
I have sought legal advice, but because of the long distance, no one will help me. Family court, solicitors and lawyers all say they can't do anything and he cannot be forced to do a DNA testing.
I have been suffering with severe depression and I really believe that this is the main cause. I need closure and answers.
Hope to hear back from someone.
Kind regards
