ParticipantKeeping us all safe is my main priority my son has major trauma bonding with his dad iv noticed he’s started to say things that I didn’t realise he noticed like my dads always angry and things but he constantly tells him he loves him like it’s so sad to watch and I will never forgive myself for it. My biggest fear in all of this is putting us at more risk. I’m going to make an appointment with solicitor today but how do u know what ones are free for advice do u call and ask and what would u ask the advice is for if that makes sense x

ParticipantMy heart broke when my teen started crying after my husband had a mass shouting attack at him for spilling a drink he just kept asking him why he always shouted.
Afterwards when they were alone apparently my husband apologised and my kid accepted and just kept making jokes about it.
My heart is broken I get that feeling of never forgiving yourself i will never forgive myself for still being here.
Im sure Ive read that womans aid could help you find a solicotor. Alot i believe are free for the first consultations. Maybe write down the questions you want to ask so you dont forget anything if the nerves kick in. You wont have to go into detail be brief but ask what you need to ask.
Maybe try and find a quiet 10mins to sit down amd write what you would love to say and ask then pick out the most importanat questions. Im certain someone will be along to help you better than me but I didnt wanna read and run. For what its worrh i think you are incredable brave this is a fantastic step good luck. Xxxxxxx -

ParticipantHi, if you speak to Womans Aid they might signpost you to local help (I have a local (ish) DA/DV cafe which signposted me).. if not Google your local DA/DV solicitors and give them a ring.. if you are in receipt of UC you might be a candidate for Legal Aid, if not there are some charities which help towards costs depending on your financial situation… I have no money as my ex is financially strangulating us for his own nasty needs. There’s help out there..that first step to see a solictor can be daunting.. I saw at least 3 local solicitors and eventually found the right fit (as best I could) to help me and my children in our situation.
Keep posting ❤️ HFH
