Recommendation Lawyer

We go to the home of our principal who explains that her little girl has been in foster care for almost 3 years. After a judgment by the Family Court Judge, the result is that the biological father is forbidden to see his daughter during the weekends of custody with the paternal grandparents.

According to the principal, the biological father claims to have no contact with his grandparents. However, he was seen several times staying with his grandparents during access and accommodation.

Faced with the urgency of the situation, he asks us to carry out surveillance and spinning in front of the grandparents’ home.

Goals

In order to have the right of visitation and accommodation reviewed, our principal asks us to:

  • Prove that the biological father’s ban is not respected by the father in the absence of the child
  • Prove that during the child’s visit, the child is present on the premises
  • Check the living and accommodation conditions are honorable
  • Photographs and videos
  • Report produced in court

Our process

1. The appointment

Faced with the urgency of the situation, we move to the principal’s home in order to start monitoring as soon as possible.

2. Strategy

In order to prove all the elements requested, observations are put in place over 40 hours divided into 4 days of intervention.

  • A first weekend without the presence of the child
  • A second weekend with the presence of the child

3. The survey

The investigation allowed us to show that the biological father had taken up residence with his grandparents, facts that were forbidden to him during the presence of the child.

A report that can be produced in court has been issued to our principal’s lawyer, allowing either:

  • The intervention of a judicial officer
  • The JAF’s review of the judgment

4. Cost of delivery

The cost of this benefit amounts to 2600 euros HT, part of which can be covered under Article 700 of the Code of Civil Procedure.

Result

A request for review was made by our principal’s lawyer to show the bad faith of the biological father.

To date, access and accommodation have been taken away from the biological father’s grandparents.
