Only round 2 will be the actual fighting for care & control of kid.
So, incase you are not aware, you have 3 legal battles or 3 separate cases to go into ahead of you. Not one.
Financially, it will be something that you have to be prepared for. A lot of time & a lot to proof to show you are a better qualified carer for the child opposed to the woman.

With regards to female lawyer representing you. It won't make any difference at all so don't bother about this. |
thanks brother, now i know there are 3 legal cases. i am trying to save some money for the lawyer fees. will 5k be sufficient? how long will this drag? i assume long drag means higher lawyer fees.
