Legal Question in Family Law in California
The attorney for my wife accused me of stalking in a letter to my attorney. I followed my wife one time to a police station. I wanted to ask her if she wanted to get a mediator but the officer said speak with an attorney. Since the incident I saw my wife one time, at a mediation. I did not stalk her and her attorney does not have any records, incident reports etc... I spoke with my wife on the telephone and she informed me she told her attorney I followed her once and only once. Her attorney used stalking to interfere with settlement, my position. I have filed a complaint with the state bar. However, we have a trial in less than a month and the issue has not been resolved. I have asked my attorney to get it resolved so I am not ambushed at trial. What advice can you provide?

If you have legal representation it's probably best to ask your attorney for advice. They would be the best ones able to know your particular individual situation and advise you accordingly. As for stalking, I don't see how you should be concerned if it was a one time incident and you have explained it as a random one time incident. If there are no legal charges or filing against you from that incident, I would not spend too much time worrying about it. In the future since you do have an attorney, its probably best if you leave your attorney to handle the negotiations for you. Your ex may not be agreeable to individually meeting with you at this time.
For self represented individuals you can consult with the family law facilitator self help center at your local court house.
As always please consult a local attorney prior to taking legal action. Good luck. Also please check out my Santa Clara County Family Lawyer blog.
