Q: Do me and my husband even have a chance to win this custody battle?
Our kids were taken from us about 3 years ago because we didn't have home and we were using. We've had a CPS case open for about a year now but the people that have my children refuse to let us see them or speak to them and now they are trying to fight us for custody we've done everything that has been asked of us passed every drug test, done a parenting class and a drug class we are even in an outpatient recovery. Yet I have the sinking feeling that these people who have adopted children before and have strong ties to the court system are going to win. What should we do?
A: Yes. You have a chance. You’ll need to hire the best family court trial lawyer you can find.
