Law / Advice on partners access to his child in Poland 🙏🏻 [6]

Hello,

I've never posted on here before but I wondered if any of you good people could help or advise. I will make this as brief yet detailed as possible. My partner is English and has been split with his ex wife for 2.5 years. He has recently completed a divorce in the uk which she will not accept or believe. He managed to get it through without her signing anything as he got a court order to prove it had been delivered to her. She will not engage in any processes at all. Divorce, sorting finances or sorting child contact. He has now got a polish lawyer working on his child contact access. This lawyer has raised concerns from the exes lawyer that the divorce won't be valid as it's done in the uk and after Brexit. It has all gone through and he has his decree absolute. His ex will allow him to see their daughter who is 8, yet lays down the law as to where he can take her and insists she is home every evening at a certain time. He is not allowed to have his daughter to stay with him and his ex will not allow him to bring his daughter to the uk for a holiday and visit family. She has told her lawyer that the one time I met on video call with their daughter, that I traumatised her and I am a danger to be around. Therefore the child will not be allowed to come to the Uk or meet me in the future. My questions are this;

1 - has anyone divorced recently and it has all gone through fine from England with no issues?
2 - has anyone experienced the polish legal system when it comes to trying to sort out child contact. Was your child allowed to come to the uk?

Thanks so much in advance for reading all this. I just
Wondered if anyone had been in the same position and if anyone had any advice. I feel so sorry for my partner, it's all so stressful and costly and he loves his daughter dearly. Obviously things aren't great from my perspective either. I'm also pregnant and his ex and daughter do not yet know so he obviously wants his daughter to be able to visit his new baby.

Many thanks,

Becky.

Hello again, sorry for the delay in replying. You've been so helpful and I appreciate your time and advice so so much. He has been paying his ex wife £300 every month now for quite some time and sends his daughter birthday and Christmas presents. I have told him to contact the school though, that's a really good idea. She is still pursuing a polish divorce even though the British one is definitely legal. So my partner is now having to get a power of attorney and apostle to notified the polish courts of proof of this divorce. Meanwhile she believes the English divorce is not valid.

You're right. She is slowly cutting off contact and making herself hard to reach. His daughter now often does not pick up the phone to him and when she does phone calls are kept short. I will get him

To start screw recording the chats just in case it all needs proving in court. Thanks so much for your advice and help 😍

Just one more thing to add, I am pregnant and due in July. I think she will go insane once he tells his daughter this. I fear it will make his contact with his daughter even harder abs she will say nasty things to the daughter about him having another baby now etx. He has been advised by his lawyer not to tell his daughter about the new baby until the child contact has been sorted. All in all she is an absolute nightmare of a woman who sadly fails to put her daughters best interests before her own. It's very sad 😞 x
