A: Possibly, but you would probably do well to consult with an experienced family law attorney, even if all you do is have a consultation. The best I can tell, your ex is apparently moving this woman into his residence and you believe she may be a danger to your own child. I note that you say both parents smoke pot. Surprisingly, that's not always a huge issues with the courts in this day and age. These are some of the reasons why i suggest that you sit down with an attorney to find out how to proceed.
