You can try and many courts will sign any agreed order. However some will review an order to see if support ordered and may question the parents to determine if child is being provided for. The only way to force a court to accept your agreement is with a mediated settlement agreement.
He owned a home when we got married. If we divorce can he try to claim part of what I buy after we separated?

If you are still married, any property you acquire is still community property and he would have an interest in it.
Even if some utility bills are paid together.

If you can prove that the property was a gift, then it's your separate property. However, in a divorce, all property acquired during the marriage is Presumed to be community property, so you'll have the burden of proof on that issue.

The best advice I can honestly give you at this time is to hire a lawyer.

Is this standard? They are also asking for "all travel expenses" incurred to be... Read more »

I can answer the first part of your question. A "direct" flight is not the same thing as a "non-stop" flight, which is a distinction I think you are confused about. Any flight that leaves from the correct city and arrives in the city designated by the court order is a... Read more »

She had 3 kids of her own that she has no right to that live with her mom. Also she spends 98% of time with my child

Probably yes but it depends on what your custody order says. There may be a "no shack up" clause that prevents overnight visits when your ex has not remarried.
If the new girlfriend is a danger to the child, you likely have grounds for a modification.

There has to be a custody suit filed and a motion for the judge to confer with the child. Technically, this can be done without a lawyer, but it would be difficult. The judge is required to consider the child's opinion, but it is only factor in the judge's decision.
