I am finding it more and more disgusting and ridiculous the way the legal system machine makes things so complicated for parents trying to hammer out things in writing.
Courts are purposefully made to be archaic, unintelligible at times and way more complicated than it needs to be. It is a travesty that a country like the USA has such a poor, fragmented judicial system when it comes to custody proceedings.
It's all a sham run by ex-lawyers (politicians and judges) to grind the gears of the legal system machine to line the pockets of the lawyers. Who gets rich? The lawyers while single parents, grandparents, and other relatives either get their life savings sucked out of them, go into debt just to pay ridiculously overblown legal fees or just throw up their hands and try to get around the system.
Pity the poor parent who has little money and they go against someone who has money to burn. Only the wealthy get justice in this country with any modicum of assurance and success.
Get a lawyer, consult an attorney, can't be done without an attorney..I am SO sick of reading and hearing this. What if you aren't poor but middle class where $200 an hour is just not possible?
I am ashamed of our country and our system and how an inept legal machine keeps giving itself a purpose while ruining lives and making cases go for months and months or years. I wonder how long it will take before we push for some legal reform. Probably never because we are too busy holding down two jobs so we can pay someone $200 an hour to write paperwork they purposely made too complicated for us to do ourselves. Ahh the irony....
Shame on you Family Court, for shame.
