Slowly Starting To Make Progress

After my initial attempts to get the legal process moving had come to a shuddering halt I was in a really difficult position. In all honesty I didn’t know how to proceed. Not only had my expectations of having any success at court been diminished from my earlier meeting I was having to deal with the fact that I wasn’t seeing Sonny.

Time was slipping by and Sarah was giving me zero information about him.

Then, I met someone who change all that.

I met a girl who I began a relationship with. A really lovely woman who I believe I was destined to meet at that particular moment at that particular time.

She knew I had a son before we began the relationship and over time I slowly began to tell her the story about what happened. This girl was a solicitor, she didn’t practice family law but had done previously and more importantly was connected to people within the family law sector.

Why was this important? Well it wasn’t because that could influence anything in any way for me but it was important in that her opinion and approach to the situation was far more positive than I was led to believe and before I knew it I had an appointment set for a meeting with a solicitor in Sheffield.

Thankfully, she had managed to trace a solicitor in Sarah’s locality that came with a good reputation and with a good firm. We both took the day off work and we travelled over to Sheffield to meet with the solicitor who I was hoping was going to give me the encouragement & belief that I did have a chance of establishing a relationship with Sonny via the court process.

The solicitor was called Louise, lovely woman and more importantly from the absolute second I walked into her office she was on my side.

She was determined to make sure me and Sonny were reunited. She was a mother herself and one with compassionate and at that time I needed someone compassionate on my side,

I didn’t want to speak much, Claire knew the story and solicitor to solicitor they discussed my options. I filled in where I needed to but generally speaking Louise was extremely positive, she said it could drag out depending on how difficult Sarah wanted to be but that there was a way forward and she was more than willing to battle it out for me.

This filled me with hope, I knew of the injustice for Dads when it came to the court room. I knew Sarah was never going to held accountable for what she had done, what she as doing and the fact it was due to her we were now heading to court but Louise did make it clear that she would drastically improve the situation we were in regarding being alienated from Sonny’s life.

We left the offices and he headed back to Manchester over the Snake Pass feeling much more positive and with a clear strategy moving forward..

Nest stop, the court room.
