If your husband agrees to do so, you can deal with parenting issues in the divorce. If not, or you prefer not to, you can deal with parenting in juvenile court. You should consult an attorney in your county to determine your best option.
My wife is telling my 14 year old daughter that she doesn’t have to answer my calls. And that I cannot spend time with her.

While you have equal legal rights to your child, if the mother is preventing you from spending time with her, you will need to file for divorce and request parenting time ordered by the court.

Divorce is nearly complete, but suddenly my ex wants psych evaluations. This would include himself, his live-in girlfriend, and me. I’m fine with this, but he also wants my new boyfriend to undergo it. We’ve been seeing each other a month and aren’t living together.
answered on Sep 19, 2020
I can only speak to Ohio, and it looks like you may live in another state. It is unusual for the court to allow psychologicals near the end of the case. It would be extremely unlikely for the court to consider an evaluation of a boyfriend. This is especially true if the boyfriend has no known... View More

Improvements, not repairs, usually increase the value. You don’t generally receive dollar for dollar value increase for those improvements. If there was an appraisal pre-repairs, though, perhaps you can show increased value now.

Hello, I'm married, bit haven't lived with my spouse in over a year. I have a Girlfriend now and was wondering if posting things with my girlfriend on social media could effect my divorce when I decide to file.

If this is just a parenting time case, your business & income are not an issue. However, if it is also a child support case, they are. Hopefully, you have evidence that you previously provided documents. As it appears you are self-employed, your business documents are relevant.
