I am a firm believer that Legal Aid should be stopped altogether in family courts.
Way too many resident parents have been able to hide behind a lawyer and get them to lie for them without them fearing reprisals such as a perjury claim. However, the non-resident parent hasn't been able to get legal aid because they earn too much and has to sit there listening to this spurious allegation and that allegation and has to take it on the chin.

Family courts should be parent vs parent, not parent,cafcass,lawyer and legal aid against the other parent.
Abolish legal aid in family courts full stop and lets give the children some hope to family life.

For the record, I am a victim of legal aid and mother being able to freely lie and hide behind a lawyer paid for by the tax payer.
