Q: My sister in law is refusing to return my children. She has filed a motion of some sort what can i do to fight this?
My sister in law was helping my wife while we were seperated, she got upset with my wife and kicked her out. Now she is making false accusations about my wife and i also threatening us with DHR. I dont know for sure but there is a rumor she may have filed a motion for custody. Im looking for some sort of help in the situation and possibly retaining a lawyer. Ive even thought about going to get my children from school and just taking them but due to the fact my wife was living there with them all of their belongings are in her household and i have nothing. Please help.
A: You really need to hire a lawyer in this kind of thing. SHe probably has filed a petition for custody of the children in the Juvenile Court. You need a lawyer to help you. Hire one.
