Question: Since I have repartnered, my son has said he doesn’t want to come over to my house every second weekend anymore and he refuses to speak to me on the phone.

Q: My wife died last year and there is to be a coroners inquest held next month. I am not working and have no assets. Can I get legal aid?
A: Thank you for your questions. Yes legal aid is available for coroners inquests but you will need to fill out the relevant form. Not all lawyers do legal aid work.There are normally medico legal questions and the hearings can take many days.
There is an excellent coroners website and also see the legal services agency website- www.lsa.govt.nz

QUESTION:
I live overseas and want to have contact with my child in NZ. Can you help me? My ex partner is not helpful as I am not paying child support. Can she withhold contact for this reason?

We help lots of people in your position. Your former partner cannot withhold contact for child support issues - they are separate matters. You may need to go through the Family Court.
