My Husband has a Daughter (from an affair) and has had contact with her for the last year. taking her out every week. Now her Mother won't let him take her out again and says he can only see her at her house? he has done nothing wrong and has a good relationship with his Daughter but the Mother does not like me and does not want me to be with my Husband when he takes her out? He is now having to take her back to court but we have been told we will need to pay the court fees again! We feel this is unfair as it is the Mother who has put the block on? If we win in Court can we get the court to make her pay us our money back?(She's on benefits and gets legal aid)

No you cannot get her to refund any monies you pay in court fees. I see this sort of thing regularly in my office and it is quite simple to solve. You are not thinking about how the girls mother feels about this situation. The easiest thing to do in this case, is for you to take a back seat and do not get involved. Let the father and the daughter have their time together and the mother will not have any reason to be concerned about your in-put into the childs life. After all she the child, is nothing to do with you. Children grow up very quickly and there will come a time in the very near future when if the child seeks your company, the mother ,I regret to say will not have a lot to say about it. That is just human nature, so why not sit back and let things take their course.Try to imagine how you would feel if some other woman was trying to be part of your childs life, I bet, like this mother, you would not welcome it. If you came to my office this is the advise I would give you. In this sort of situation, going to court will solve nothing, there will be no winners just losers.So to sum up, let your husband and the child have their time and you just bide your time and it will work out OK
