Hi all
Can anyone recommend a good family lawyer in Melbourne? I've heard of other women spending thousands of dollars and still losing cases to their partners.
Thanks

What do you mean losing? Family law is about equity and what is best for the children, not winning and losing.
I want what's best for the children but my partner is telling lies about me in order to gain full custody.
Does he have proof of that? He won't get anywhere without proof. My ex used to scare me with this all the time but now that I've seen the system for myself it would actually be very difficult to prove someone is an unfit parent. Take your kids for health check ups, take them to hairdressers, counsellors, dentists, enrol in parenting programs, take the kids to social events. Do things that you can show on paper that you're looking after your kids as best you can.
People tell lies in family law regularly. They need evidence and if judges don't get any they'll often make court ordered psychiatric assessments etc. You don't 'lose' unless there is a reason
