Sorry for your loss. Due to the sensitive nature in dealing with wills/trusts you need to contact a probate lawyer to make sure your interests are represented.

Assuming she has custody and you only have visitation, and If there is not an order saying she has to allow visitation (or visitation is dictated in the order) then it is within her rights to say no. You need to contact a family law attorney that can assist you with this, because these types of... Read more »

You need to contact your attorney to bring matter before the Court. The judge likely will order the meds given as prescribed.

You do not have enough details to properly answer your question. However, as with almost any custody issue you should contact a family law attorney to discuss the specifics of your case and your options.

Only if the funds are used to support the child. It would be better for the actual custodian was paid.

I'm at a loss as to why DHS can't find abuse. Go ahead and take him in, and see an experienced family law attorney to file for legal guardianship. Good luck.
How far in advance would I have to notify the other parent that we are moving if there is no custody agreement between us? And can they legally stop me from moving?
answered on May 15, 2022
This forum is a general forum and it is not as easy as a yes or no. You need to contact a family attorney for a consult to get your specific details.
Can they legally stop you from moving if there is no custody agreement?
answered on May 15, 2022
There is a default state statute on this and even if your decree is absent wording it is enforceable. However, it is more applicable to the primary custodial parent (or more specifically the one person who can declare the primary resident of the child). You should contact an experienced family law...

If your rights were terminated and the child was adopted to another then it is very rare that you can get rights restored. There are a couple exceptions but those are extremely hard to prove and validate. As such the other parents have ultimate say over their child. Contact an adoption attorney to... Read more »
My dhs lawyer has been going back and forth for almost 3/4 months trying to get the discovery for our case from the courts and they keep beating around the bush. Now they are not even responding to him. I know that the discovery does not have to legally be given out (even though we are entitled to... Read more »

I don't know what discovery the courts would be providing to you. Generally its the opposing party that you are requesting documents/information from and if they fail to comply with discovery requests you file a Motion to Compel. Your DHS attorney probably knows this.
My dad was diagnosed with dementia February 2020. I had been his POA since May 2019. my daughter, without me knowing, changed poa to her in February 2021 at the time he had senile dementia and Alzheimer's per his doctor.

There are more than one kind of power of attorney. Some POAs terminate instantly when someone becomes incapacitated or no longer competent because a power of attorney is predicated on the person granting the authority to make the decision as if it were themselves (in other words in their capacity)....

A protective order was issued against him for Me and my son for 5 years back in 2018.
answered on May 4, 2022
In short - your only option is a step-parent adoption has to take place. There is another way where DHS is involved but they wouldn’t be involved in your situation it doesn’t sound like. In essence the state will not terminate the rights of a parent without someone else assuming the rights (and... Read more »
About a year ago, I decided that it was in my daughter's best interest to sign my parental rights away to allow her step dad to adopt her. I did this because we had been dragging out a custody battle for 4 years without ever actually going to court for custody. Every court day was more and... Read more »

Your case has specific details that will be best suited with an attorney rather than this forum. Most will give a free phone consultation. I suggest you contact one sooner rather than later so that you can insure your rights if they in fact still remain intact.
With the other parent and file an emergency order? If they allow the children to go anyway they can be charged?
answered on Apr 3, 2022
Every case is different, but a reasonable belief is the starting point, there are many factors involved in this and since you would be violating a court order, you need to make sure that you are doing it in the manner in which you are allowed in order to not be held in contempt yourself. Allowing... Read more »

If the life insurance policy truly belongs to you, then all you have to do is call the life insurance company and ask, and you can update the beneficiary anytime you want. If you have been paying the premiums, then the life insurance policy probably belongs to you. If you have not been paying the... Read more »
