Q: Parents divorcing. 4 year olds custody to be decided. Child regularly says he doesn't want to be with his mother.
I'm in desperate need of help. My best friend is going through a tumultuous custody battle with his soon-to-be ex-wife. He's currently an unemployed single father who's doing the best he can given his situation. Everyday this woman makes it harder and harder on him. We have spoken to multiple lawyers in Chester and Chesterfield with little-to-no positive results. would it be possible to get a quote or some advice as to where we should turn.This child deserves to be with his father. And right now money is keeping them apart. Any help is appreciated. Thank you.
A: You are going to want to find a local family law lawyer in the jurisdiction where this is taking place and go with the best one. That may very well not be the lowest fee but it may not be the highest fee either. Any good family law lawyer will be able to guide him through the process.
