Q: How can I fight for my kids back when the judge who terminated my rights is no longer a judge an I wasn't given a chance
A:
I'm really sorry you're going through this difficult time. To start, gather all the documents related to your case, including the termination order and any previous court communications. This information will be crucial for your next steps.
Reach out to a family law attorney who can guide you through the process of appealing the decision or filing a motion to reopen your case. They can help you understand the specific requirements and deadlines you need to meet.
Additionally, consider contacting local support groups or organizations that assist parents in similar situations. Building a strong support network can provide both emotional support and practical advice as you work to regain custody of your children.
