Help Hadrian Reunite with His Daughter: A Father’s Ongoing Fight for Family

Hi, My name is Jasmin and I am starting this GoFundMe page to share an emotional and urgent story of my family friend, Hadrian. For the past seven years, Hadrian has been locked in a gruelling family court battle with his ex-partner—not for revenge, not for control, but simply to maintain a relationship with his daughter and ensure his son is reunited with his sister.

He’s not asking for anything extraordinary. He’s asking for the basic right to be a father—to show up, to support, to love, and to be present in his daughter’s life.

A Costly Fight for Love

In the early years of this legal journey, Hadrian spent over $80,000 securing final court orders that allowed him to be part of his daughter’s life. He believed these orders would provide a lifelong relationship with his daughter.
But instead, he’s been faced with continuous breaches of these orders. Despite the court’s rulings, the other parent has made repeated efforts to alienate Hadrian from his daughter along with several false allegations. This has lead for Hadrian’s daughter to not only be alienated from him, but also her five year old brother —who also suffers from the separation.

“I’m not perfect — but I show up.”
Hadrian has always said that he’s not a perfect person or parent, but that he’s always done his best. He shows up every day — not just physically, but with love, care, and commitment to get his daughter back.
He works hard to provide for his children, and despite the overwhelming odds, he continues to do whatever it takes to be there for them.

Hadrian doesn’t want to be in court. He wants to be in his daughter’s life—helping with homework, attending school events, celebrating birthdays, and simply being the loving father he has always tried to be.

The Next Legal Hurdle: $100,000
Now, to return to court and resume regular access to his daughter, Hadrian has been quoted $100,000 in legal fees. This is a fee he simply cannot afford on his own anymore.

Hadrian has already poured everything he has—emotionally, financially, and mentally—into trying to preserve and protect his relationship with his daughter. But this next step is a hurdle that requires the help of others.

How You Can Help
This fundraiser isn’t just about paying for legal fees. It’s about supporting a father’s love for his daughter. It’s about ensuring that a child has access to both parents. It’s about giving Hadrian the opportunity to keep fighting for his relationship with his daughter and for the future of his family.
If you can contribute—no matter how small—you’re directly helping Hadrian get one step closer to spending more time with his daughter. If you can’t contribute financially, please share this story with others and spread the word.

Thank you for your support, your kindness, and for standing with Hadrian in this difficult fight.
