Yes. You have already won the hard part of the jurisdictional argument. You just need to act quickly to get an Arizona Judge involved.
We can certainly help you consider and then pursue your options. This is obviously a very important matter, and you should not go in alone.
Please call us directly to discuss the specifics of your matter, or contact my assistant Gina or my paralegal Jennifer to schedule your free 1/2 hour consultation.

Yes, and you should not wait for Father to file here in Arizona. You, the mother, needs to file for divorce.
