Expert's Assistant chat

Customer: My divorce occurred back in 2010. Along with that information I would also like you to know that from 2010 untill 2020 my ex-wife,and I were co-parenting just fine. It wasn't untill my second divorce took place, while the world was going into global recession. That a new allegation was brought forth, claiming that the children were not going to be safe around me. I personally have never had any type of domestic charges, nor do I suffer from any type of mental deficiencies. But after 10 years without issues, it took my second wife congregating along with my first wife. To make a whole new set of claims, they both now claim to be scared for the childrens well being, as well as their own. At this point I'm not sure what I can do. I'm not even allowed to speak to my children. (Per their mother not the court) my two ex wives are now meeting together off and on throughout the year. Even meeting for no less than a week for Christmas. All the while I am still being pushed to the side, and kept away from them (all of my children). This is taking a toll on me to the fullest possiblity. I'm sorry to write so much, but Im truly hurting. I hope there's at least some sort of direction I could be pointed in. To help reconcile and rebuild the relationships that I love and miss having with my children. I know this has takin such a huge toll on my family. And has basically broken me to the core. I need my family back.
JA: What steps have you taken? Have you filed any papers in family court?
Customer: I have. But I seem to be up against the wall, once they both take the stand. Or at least that's how it has gone thus far.
JA: Family law varies by state. What state are you in?
Customer: Indiana, and Tennessee. My oldest 2 boys are 15 and 13. They live in Tennessee. My youngest 2 (boy 8 and my girl 6) live in Indiana.
JA: Is there anything else the Lawyer should know before I connect you? Rest assured that they'll be able to help you.
Customer: Yes after the divorce with my first wife, I received full custody of my oldest 2 because of decisions she made that ultimately ended up with her being under Dr care in a mental facility for 3 weeks to a month.

Is there a custody order in place?

Customer

For my youngest 2 in Indiana there is, it's pretty restrictive but at least there is one,I guess. In Tennessee with my 2 oldest there is not

M. Jacob Mihalov, Expert

Ok, you can't force people to change their minds about you, but you can file a modification in Indiana, and custody in Tennessee to get the court to review the case an issue an order that you must be allowed to see the children at specified times. Essentially, you'd be asking for a custody schedule.

Customer

Is there anything that I could do to better myself in the courts eyes. Before I do that. The last two times that I've been to court for those 2 purposes. I've been met with new hoops to jump through after both of my ex wives gave their testimony. I've gone through a year with supervised visitation, I've been through anger management classes. At this point now they have asked for me to have a mental evaluation done. It really seems that they are drawing from a fish bowl for excuses to keep me away.. as I told you earlier. I have never once been in any type of trouble for anything related to any of these allegations.

M. Jacob Mihalov, Expert

The court takes into account the "totality of the circumstances" so the only way to "better myself in the court's eyes" is to present a set of circumstances that show what you're trying to prove. There's really no magic words or actions here, each case is different. In this case, it sounds like you'll need to refute the testimony of your ex wives, and/or simply comply with the mental health evaluation.

M. Jacob Mihalov, Expert

It will probably just be easier to comply, rather than filing for whole new hearings.

Customer

Ok. I will go ahead and set something up. Is there anything I can possibly do offset future false allegations, as they appear.

M. Jacob Mihalov, Expert

The only way to offset testimony is to have proof that it's not true. Criminal defense attorneys call this "impeaching the witness."

M. Jacob Mihalov, Expert

Is there anything else I can help with?

Customer

No not for now. I'm just going to make sure this eval gets done, and also make sure that I have what I need to hopefully keep myself from future alligations. I appreciate your time.

M. Jacob Mihalov, Expert

I think that's a good plan, you're very welcome!
