Q: I have visitation on Wed for my girl--her mom blocked my cell phone, and not sure where her whereabouts would be. Help
Also, my gf and I are planning a vacation (which happens to be on 2 of my visitation days) I let my daughters mom know 3 months in advance and she's threatening to file something against me. Is there anything I can do?
A: A lawyer will need to review the exact wording of the existing court order. Does it say anything about girlfriends? Send the Mom a letter by priority mail, so it can be tracked. Say in the letter what you believe your visitation rights are, and state the specific date and times you want to pick up the child from, and return the child to, the Mom on each day of visitation. Ask her to reply in writing. If she will not cooperate in arranging the visitation dates, you should retain a Los Angeles Family law attorney to help you further. Remember to be calm at all times. If the Mom wants to fight and yell, just walk away. If you have to go to court to enforce your visitation rights, the judge will be pleased to see that you behaved well.
