me and my wife came to and agreement how I must see my child. Me and my wife want a temporary agreement cause since she is staying there for now there is alot of interference from her parents on how amd when I must see my child. They send her brother with all the time. So me and my wife decided she will be the only one allowed with me and child going forward. So we want a legal document where she can say she has to abide by this.

I had a customary marriage in which ended in . I’ve been staying with all the three kids to my marriage until two years ago when I asked his mother to take him as I couldn’t afford looking after all 3. I live with the two older ones that she hardly sees though she lives in Centurion and I live in Kempton Park. I want to formally dissolve the relationship and serve her with divorce papers. I’m not sure if she’ll contest this.

Good day • I have two children age 5 and age 10yrs from my previous marriage. • I would like to apply for sole custody and full guardianship responsibility through the high court. • The father agrees and is willing to sign an affidavit granting me full rights. • This is an uncontested matter,both parents are in agreement. • Purpose: to obtain a court order so I can immigrate to the uk with the children without needing the father’s ongoing consent. Please provide me with the cost of your service and turn around time , I also wanted to know if this could be put forward as an emergency application as we are in the process of moving to the uk .

I got divorced in March . We were married in COP. We both had attorneys for the divorce. The agreement was that we obtain the divorce and deal with the division afterwards. I tried to follow all the steps to get this done but my ex is not cooperating. The division has not been done despite me trying for all these years, as my ex is avoiding me and the liquidators. My ex has been avoiding the liquidator’s emails, phone calls and text messages for over a year. The liquidator resigned from her duties. My attorneys stepped down once the divorce took place. I’ve recently learned that they’ve also stuffed up as the pension is not even mentioned in the divorce papers. Both my ex and I are entitled to half of each other’s pension/provident funds as per COP. I tried to claim from my ex’s provident fund but was unsuccessful as the paperwork doesn’t even mention pension or provident funds. My instructions to my then attorneys have always been complete and fair division of everything, including pension funds. I don’t know what else to do to help myself. My ex has since even sold a vehicle without my knowledge and consent and illegally tried to sell 1 of the properties with a fraudulent signature where mine is supposed to be. I was copied in the emails by mistake and thus found out about it and stopped the sale. he has been depriving me of absolutely everything and he’s even been getting rental income out of 1 of the properties without giving me any share. He currently lives in the marital home with his girlfriend and the girlfriend has even removed some of the items from the house which belongs to the estate. There are 3 properties in total. We have 4 children and he stopped paying maintenance years ago. 3 of the kids now live with him since , and I allowed this because I’ve been unemployed and unable to take care of them financially. He was paying about R maintenance only and eventually stopped paying completely without warning. I have also learned that he hasn’t been paying the full bond repayment amounts for 2 of the properties.. the 3rd property is paid up. The bond repayment for the matrimonial home is very little and he lives there with his girlfriend who owns a business… and he has a very good leadership role at the Nelson Mandela Bay Municipality and he earns a very good salary. 2 of the properties has tenants. I don’t even know who the tenants are as I haven’t seen or signed and lease agreements. I need help please.

I fighting a full custody for my daughter which I'm supporting with everything since she was born. Her mother and I were in a relationship and broke. I went to family advocate office for assistance to get an equal right as a mother but could not come into agreement and the matter was referred to Motherwell court for assessment. Whilst we were busy with the process the mother passed away. I'm the only parent that is left but my daughter stays with her aunt and siblings. They don't want to give me the full custody of the child. I have attached the documents for their reasons not to give me the child. All the points are not true and their opposing arguments are not correct. They brought their own lawyer hence I want to be presented by a lawyer too. My daughter is 8 years old. I pay maintenance, school fees, school transport and clothes for her. Aunts are not doing anything for her. The social worker recommendations favour the father but they don't want to accept that.
I would like to find out how i can be assisted on what to do for my child to have my name on her birth certificate,i am still awaiting an outcome on my appeal permit application from the department of home affairs,my child mother's family is asking me to pay 6 cows for my child to bear my name which i find unfair,firstly I'm not with the mother anymore,secondly when we met she had a child already and her first baby daddy didn't have to pay this much for his child to bear his name.
