My ex filed for divorce in Az; I didn't contest it & I allowed him to have full custody of both of my sons. 3 years later, he moved to Las Vegas, NV & didn't tell anyone until almost 4 years later. In the mean time, I moved home to Va & ever since then he has refused to allow me to visit my boys. He is an alcoholic (he has DUI's) & has had many arrests in the past 10 years. He fled AZ because he has warrants there & owes someone 7yrs. of back child support. My child support to them is current (it goes directly to AZ). I don't know anything about NV or where to file to get my rights inforced. I believe that the boys would be better off with me so that there dad can get the treatment he needs. Can someone help me, this is just not fair to my boys or myself?

I am low income & do not have the money it will take to hire an attorney. Do you know anyone who will take my case for free or someone out there who just wants to do a good deed like Oprah?

You'd have to file that in AZ. Only the court in AZ that granted the divorce can modify it or turn jurisdiction over to another court. You might be able to enforce the AZ judgement in NV as far as visitation is concerned. Consult a NV attorney on that aspect.

DON'T file in the family courts in Las Vegas, the judges are as crooked as the day is long. But, if you have too... a very good attorney is mandatory or you will get screwed. I know this from experiance. My case is now in the State Supreme court charging denial of due process and equal protection, among lesser charges.

Your in basic terms danger is the very incontrovertible fact which you have been doing this for a 300 and sixty 5 days, different than that, is it extremely honest that she would not get weekends while she would be off to spend time with the youngsters? that would not go without asserting which you have not have been given very lots time with them as that's, so which you're able to take a seat down together with her and clarify which you're superb with the another weekend, yet you will possibly want to have extra days throughout the week to spend time with the babies. an incredible parenting time schedule that i've got seen artwork is the two-3-2 schedule. Week a million: mom: Mon - Tue Dad: Wed - Fri mom: Sat-solar Week 2: swap names. This schedule works nicely in case you the two stay interior close place of another, or a minimum of the college and daycare they attend. yet an alternate determination is to ask for overnights throughout the week which includes what we call in Texas, prolonged visitation. On each and every Thursday you %. the newborn up and return the newborn to college. on your weekends, you will get the youngsters Thursday, take them to college Friday and %. them up from college Friday for the weekend. that could provide you the 4 days you're lacking. You the two know what is going to artwork superb on your schedules, yet maximum heavily the youngsters. that's not approximately you or the ex spouse, you would be able to desire to die to self while it is composed of the youngsters...
