Regarding Child Custody?

Question

I am a father from Texas and I have been trying to get custody of my child for almost 2 years now. The mother of my child is married to a convicted criminal for things like Drugs, weapons, etc. But more importantly he is also a s*x offender. In my first attempt to gain custody we mediated and the mediator and my waste of attorney said that since we did not have a specific release date for the husband the child did not run risk and if he were to get out soon then a restraining order would be put in place so the husband could not be with in a certain distance from the child. I now believe I have release date on him. She has been acting fine on paper but she is just doing that because she doesn't want me to take her to court since the husband is coming out soon. Do I have a chance to gain custody if I go to trial?

Answer 1

Is he a convicted pedophile?  Was it someone underage?  If so the conditions of his parole release will prevent him from returning home.  Your ex will have to choose if she wants her child or her husband.  I say if you can prove that she is not keeping him away from the child, then you have a good chance to gain custody.

Answer 2

Im sorry, my sympathies but your a man which the legal system does not like. unless you make her give you the custody. (bribe is only chance, sadly)

oh yeah, dont vote for Obama-Biden....help fathers

Answer 3

get a ppo for the kid and file for emergency temporary custody order

Answer 4

You have an awesome chance of getting custody off your kid. If your exes husband has all these charges against him, then he is considered a treat to the child.

Also a s*x offender makes it easier.

It would be in the best interest of the child to be with you. Protected and safe. You attorney sucked, you could have won this two years ago with the right defence.

Get a better lawyer this time and this cause is a sure win. Good Luck.
