Hi there I'm seeking for a labour lawyer to defend me in the case that my company has laid against me. I'm dismissed from my job because the HR and the boss said I committed a fraud in the company. The truth is I didn't commit any fraud from the company. Then I want to take the matter to CCMA as this is going to be the second time.

Mother has sole custody of 2 children. Father has not really been involved. Never parented, no maintainance etc. Father is not on birth certificates. Children want to do a trial run living with father. Mother wants a parenting plan drawn up that allows her to retain full custody, keeps father's rights at 0 and has specific educational, health, safety and other things that oif violated by the father results in the children living with the mother again and the father not being allowed unsupervised visits with them there after. A protection order was granted to the mother in because of abuse on the father's part due to drug and alcohol use. Protection order was violated by the father a year later. He had gotten clean and wanted access to the children. Minimal supervised visitation was allowed which changed to more time and unsupervised once the father stayed clean. Mother wants to keep all rights regarding the children in her care and keep the father's rights as him having none while still allowing the children to safely explore theirs desire to live with the father.

We employed a worker on a "day to day" basis for two days per week, since October last year. When we were not here, as we are out of the country often, she was requested to not work those days. So, essentially, she worked when we needed her, on the days that we reqested her to work We paid for a full day, at a rate higher than she requested, even though she often finished at about lunch time, never working the full day. The higher rate was paid to compensate for any statutory payments that may, or may not, be required on any payment to casual workers. She was often given items to take home, over and above her pay. Each month she would advise how many days she worked, and she would be paid accordingly. We had items disappearing and decided to not make police cases as we did not want to cause an issue. She borrowed money on occasions, where we assisted her. The last straw in the relationship was when she called our family the beginning of May this year, while I was in Zambia, to discuss not receiving payment when she requested a "cash send" payment, rather than the normal bank account transfer, that went wrong technically. Previous payments made to her bank account went through without any issues. This created unacceptable tension and she was asked to leave. We paid for the full day even though she worked 1 hour. The arbitration date has been set for a date when both my wife and I are not in Cape Town. Our tickets were booked the beginning of the year already. Please advise.

Divorce order granted custody to the mother, I have access. But I have been the primary care giver, living with the child continuously for the past 10 years and about 2 years before then. I would like to have custody as the father and access to the mother. Which is the opposite of what the court has ordered in the divorce settlement.

Im maintaining the child, Im the one paying for all her school fees, school clothes, Summer clothes, Winter Clothes, Each and every school holidays I fetch her and buy her new clothes because everytime she comes visit they pack old torn clothes , they dont even pack panties for her but I buy them all the time. Her school fees is up to date, actually settled and recently bought her winter clothes together with winter uniform without the mother even asking me because I know I have a daughter who I must maintain. Unfortunately I never knew that the mother will be greedy and take me to court, so I didn't take any pictures of the things I bought and even kept receipts, But I think the school can draw the statements

I have been divorced for almost 6years and for the past year or so the other parent has not been adhering to the parenting plan. He lives with his parents and it appears that there is an issue wjth his dad and the kids coming there. I do not know all the details but the kids are 15 and 10 and when they need to go to their dad it is a struggle and sometimes they do not go. I would like to either 1. File a motion for contempt of court or 2. Have the parental plan changed to dictate the current circumstances.
