Prairieville, LA asked in Family Law for Louisiana

Q: My son's father has recently gotten custody back even though he was behind 10k Is there anything I can do?

In 2015 our 6 kids were taken out of our home by OCS because of the cramped living conditions, we were told to get them back we needed a bigger place. We got into a bigger place and were gave back four out of the 6, because my two boys were gave to the custody of their father. I have now been served papers for court pertaining childsupport matters, I will do anything for my kids without a question, but I have not been able to even see my boys going on 2 1/2 months now. When the Louisiana flood happened, my boys and them lost everything, so they asked me to keep my boys for a few days until they could get back on their feet. I had my boys for 4 weeks before they called saying they were ready for them back, during that time period we were the ones going out buying their shoes, school clothes, backpacks, and things that they would need for life to return to as close to normal as it could be. I want to at least have visitation with my boys is there anything I can do?

A: You can file a rule for contempt for the back child support, and for the refusal to allow visitation if that is a violation of an existing custody order. You should consult with an attorney regarding these matters. I'd be happy to speak with you and advise you as to the steps I can take to help you. Give me a call, toll-free, at 866-368-4279.
