        £6K for an non molestation order??? That is crazy, and most houses are owned by both people, therefore you can't get the £ to pay it- one rule for the rich and one for women- how surprising- not 😑🙄

        Thus under the new housing legislation,the victims are not going to categorized as vulnerable victim even they got children with them!Legal aid isn't even free for low-income people!What a scam!

        I had to go it alone to court whilst awaiting the decision from LAA. When I finally was told I had some help it was too late for the orders as I'd done it myself. Now I've gotten in huge financial debt after having to pay ALL my legal aid costs back and my ex off #DomesticAbuse

        When you're already in a vulnerable place, help is needed! All I felt was distress on top of distress. It's a MASSIVE move forward to leave with a child and after so many years and into refuge. LAA made it even more difficult or me!!

        Hang on its means tested so if you can afford to pay for a contribution you should. Headline should read domestic violence victims are refusing to pay toward their legal costs, expecting tax payers to foot the whole bill.
