Make legal aid available to all parties in family courts cases about children
When there are legal proceedings in the family court regarding one or more children, I would like the Government to make legal aid available to all parties, to ensure everyone has sufficient representation and one side is not at a disadvantage.
Currently parents can face legal proceedings in the family court regarding their child, but only one party might be eligible for legal aid. This can the other party at a huge disadvantage, leaving them either without legal representation, or having to pay for their own representation. This is unfair, and the Government should make legal aid available to all parties in family courts cases about children.
