Q: My son is going threw a divorce and can't afford a lawyer. He has been giving her 300.00 a week for the kids.
She is holding them from him though since he started dating now they are separated .so now he told her until a child support order goes through to let him know what is needed and he will get it. What are his chances of getting shared parenting or having any chance at all in court.
A: There is no way to estimate his chances without a full review of all the facts. He really can't afford to go through the divorce without an attorney. He might be able to find an attorney to work with him. He can use the Find a Lawyer tab to call a few. Some courts have a legal clinic with volunteers to assist those without an attorney.
