What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? GA
I came here for help when my ex sued for custody of my 12-year-old daughter and was crucified. I am, and have always been, a good parent that always put my child's interest first. However, this site felt that because I was being sued -- I was controlling, unfair to the father, and not thinking of my child.
In all fairness, the advisors on this site, nor I, knew I had a bad judge in GA that was forced to resign from the bench, due to possible criminal litigation, and sent a letter to the Governor that he would never seek office again.
I've had a semi-happy ending in the long run. My daughter is back with me and we are closer now than is imaginable. But the scars are deep. She is now 16 and we are still working through her resentment of her father. I don't want that resentment as some advisors on this site would like to believe. How does that benefit my daughter? He just sent my daughter and I to Paris for a vacation in his effort to redeem himself. Money goes a long way in court, not in real life.
My point is to avoid court and family lawyers. It will drain your savings and accomplish nothing. Follow your heart and fight with you heart. And don't give up. Your child needs you even if they don't think so at the time.What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?
