It would depend on the wording of the contract between the client and lawyer. Most contracts state that the fee is a percentage of "all amounts recovered." Therefore, the fee would be a percentage of the total settlement, including the lien, in most cases. Many times, the attorney will... Read more »

No, child support and visitation have nothing to do with each other, and 2 wrongs don't make a right. If he's not paying his child support, you can file a rule to have him held in contempt. Likewise, if you refuse to allow him visitation, he can file to have you held in contempt.
She doesn't pay it on time and it is ruining my credit.

If Louisiana is your permanent address, and you have no plans to move in the immediate future, you can file in Louisiana. I would defer to someone who is familiar with the divorce laws of the other states to say if you can file in one of the other states.

Yes, I would recommend that the biological father file suit to be recognized as the child's father. You can also sue to disavow paternity. I would recommend that you both speak with attorneys (you will need separate ones) to discuss how best to proceed.

He should consult with an attorney to protect and assert his paternal and custodial rights to the child. If he and the mother cannot agree on the terms of his custody and visitation, he should ask the court to do so. The mother alone does not have the final say.

Simply call any attorney who handles divorce and family law. Many attorneys will offer an affordable rate for an uncontested divorce, and they can often be done without setting foot in a courtroom.
