A: Bottom line, she needs to hire an attorney to defend this case. I suggest she do so first thing Monday morning. Where many people go wrong is they wait too long to get an attorney and damage is done to the case that the attorney later may or may not be able to undo.

A: Modifications of Custody and Child Support are very complex arguments and she should hire an attorney. It sounds like she has a sound argument for maintaining the status quo, but she needs an attorney to make that clear tot the court.
