VerifiedGood Morning
My name is ***** ***** I am a NSW Solicitor. Thank you for your question, and will do my best to assist you with your question. Please understand this is not legal advise Please understand this is not legal advise but a guide to assist you.
Does he have any orders from the court?
This is the process
You should contact your closest family relationship centre. This is a free service provided by the Federal Government. Their website is
http://www.familyrelationships.gov.au
You can find your closest one on there.
The web-site also have alot of useful information and links to assist you.
Before going to court you must obtain a certificate from a family dispute resolution practitioner. You get this through the free service provided at the family relationship centres.
If you need to go to court then you will need to file an application in the Family Court or the Federal Circuit Court
http://www.familycourt.gov.au and http://www.federalcircuitcourt.gov.au
He will have to contact and arrange for the mediation and it would have to be over the phone because of the distance.
If it fails then he has not choice but to go to court.
He should be having regular phone contact and overnight on holidays etc.
That is a minimum.
He will need to see a solicitor to help him with the application.
But go to mediation first as this is a requirement.
I hope this makes sense and is of assistance. If there is nothing further
thank you for using my services.
If I have missed anything, or you have any further questions please let me know
If there is anything else in the future please do not hesitate to ask.
Please do not forget to leave positive feedback.
Regards
