Hi, I need some advice on what to expect at a CMS tribunal please...

I am going to a tribunal soon as I am disputing the payments I make. My children stay with me far more than my ex has admitted to the CMS so they have defaulted to 1 day/week, which is far too low.

I don''t know what to expect at the tribunal and I was hoping for some advice from someone in the know. For example:

- Who presides ?
- Who else will be present ?
- Will I be in the room with my ex ?
- Can I have a friend / supporter with me ?
- Will I get the opportunity to speak and put my case ?
- Can I introduce evidence at the hearing ?
- Will the judgement be made immediately ?

Thanks for any advice.
