Fact-finding hearings are used by the courts to help the judge decide whether allegations made by a party are true or not in family law cases. The different types of allegations can include physical abuse, sexual abuse, financial abuse, emotional abuse, psychological abuse, racial abuse, and controlling or coercive behaviour, as well as any other behaviour that you may have found abusive to you. A fact-finding hearing aims to get to the truth, to progress contact with any children involved safely and remove any risks of abuse towards them.
Preparing for a Fact-Finding Hearing
Facing a fact-finding hearing can be a daunting prospect whether you’re the victim of untrue allegations or the one making the claims. It can also be a bit of a minefield if you’re representing yourself in court. Although it is possible self-represent successfully, it’s really important to get some advice and support with preparing for a fact-finding hearing as not getting it right can detrimentally affect your case.
What Will This Course Teach Me?
This course will teach you how to prepare thoroughly for a Fact-Finding Hearing (whether you are the one making allegations or a victim of false allegations), as well as how to behave and what to do afterwards. You will learn about the Scott Schedule and how this is used in a fact-finding hearing. You will also look at example allegations in detail and consider what evidence could be used to support or disprove each one. You will also learn how to handle different responses to allegations and how to prepare your statement. The course will look at how best to defend yourself against unfounded allegations of abuse if you’re self-representing.
