Abusive mother allowed to keep children
In what appears to be a very unusual case a Family Court has ordered that the children of an abusive Mother are to remain living with her and the Father is not permitted to spend any time with them at all.
The Mother had made the children so distressed at seeing their father that Justice Austin decided that they should not have to see him.
Evidence was presented that showed that the Father had warm loving relationships with the children in the past. This relationship however was undermined by the mother who instilled in the children a fear of the father.

Fixed Fees
Lawyers’ fees are a big worry for people needing legal services. This is because they are often charged on a time basis with no one being able to say how much time will be taken.
ReesLaw’s Fixed Fees:
- reduce uncertainty about how much you need to pay;
- help you to budget for legal fees;
- help you to realistically assess costs versus benefits of each step along the way;
- reassure you of our commitment to progress your matter as efficiently and effectively as possible as fees are not taken until work is completed;
- enable you and ReesLaw to work together on your matter without you worrying about being charged extra every time we communicate with you or anyone else, prepare documents, research the law or attend on any other matter within the scope of our retainer.
