Legal Question in Family Law in Arizona
I was planning on filing for termination of parental rights for my son, I know there is a 6 month waiting period before it is considered abondonment. My Ex-husband called my son 5 days before the 6 months was up and hasn't made contact again in the last month and a half. Do I have to wait another 6 months to file?

There's actually more to this than whether six months have passed between contacts (e.g. how old is the child and have there been other periods of substantial "absence" by the other parent, etc.). I recommend you speak with an attorney who can discuss the issues with you in greater detail. We offer a free initial consultation, so please contact our office to schedule a time to meet with one of our attorneys regarding your matter.
