Re: Can I insist on contact with grandchildren
Thanks for all the advice. I have made a formal complaint to the old LA and written to the new LA to inform them that contact has never taken place and the judgement not adhered to. As for mediation- the judge said that the father & his partner, mother and the aunt had to attend mediation to wor...
