Is it legal? She cheated i still told her id like to work on marrage for the kids. No court yet no divorce or seperation what should i do
A: If you do not agree with her proposal you need to file for custody and visitation orders as soon as possible so she does not get established up there first. Judges look to the status quo of the situation first when deciding how to rule on custody and visitation orders when there are none in place. The longer you allow the situation to progress and the more set up she gets 400 miles away and you start a visitation plan the harder it will be for you to stop your children from moving and being 400 miles away. If you have any questions on the process or how to file please do not hesitate to contact me at my office.
