Hello Dads,
Just wondering.. does anyone know if the Legal Aid claimed by Ex's (due to false Domestic Abuse claims) ever dries up?
Ie. Will my Ex still be able to claim Legal Aid (to finance her Child Arrangement legal team) in 2/5/10 years as a result of DA Allegations (false obviously) made following our split in 2022?
I've also just received notice of a CMS Appeal / Tribunal, and the paperwork completed by Ex is all in somebody else's handwriting - almost certainly a solicitor financed by Legal Aid.
I'm really hoping that these claims of DA cannot go on indefinitely (for years) as a path to getting Legal Aid, because otherwise things will never calm down and we will never be able to coparent our daughter whilst Ex is financially incentivised to accuse me of everything under the sun, and make things as acrimonious as possible.
It would make sense to me that Legal Aid cannot be claimed beyond 2 years after the relationship ending, but as most of us know; common sense does not prevail.
Thanks!
