The single most important thing that will decide the outcome of your child custody battle is the information that you have.
I remember when I was getting started I didn’t know enough to ask the lawyer intelligent questions. I was confused, lost and hurt.
My education came via the school of hard knocks. I had my visitation cut in half and my child support increased 300%. I just didn’t know and the legal system wasn’t there to help me, all they wanted was to get me in and out of the system as quickly and quietly as possible.
After the courts cut my visitation and my ability to support my family in half, I began to read everything I could about custody, visitation, and child support. I, along with my wife, formed a group that helped bring the plight of fathers and step-mothers to the attention of the media. (That is a story in itself! When the Speaker of The House calls you at home screaming, or the State’s Attorney loses his cool in front of your wife…..wow) By the time my case made it to the Appellate court, I was educating my lawyer on the law.
Looking back it was tough. It took a lot of time, determination and money to get the education that I needed to win the right to be a dad to my kids. If I had had the right information from the beginning I would have saved thousands of dollars and been able to spend more time, birthdays and Christmases with my kids.
The right information is the most important thing you need to win your child custody battle.
I have found one source of information that I think will help anyone that is about to do battle for the right to be a parent to their kid. It is called The Child Custody Center. It brings together all the information that you need in one spot. It is put together by two top experts in the field Dr Bricklin and Dr Elliot. It has all the information that I wish I had known when I got started.
They make a statement that is so true, “It is easier to win the first time around then to reopen your case”. So true! You need to get it right the first time. For your sake, for your kids sake, for your wallets sake.
One thing that I appreciate about the Child Custody center is that they give you state specific information. No more searching the web for your state’s laws and forms. What a time saver!
I could go on about the Child Custody Center but you can read about it for your self by Clicking Here.
I hope that you check it out. It could save you a lot of time and money and most importantly – get you more time with your children.
