Legal Question in Family Law in California

ex-wife lives with biological brother & children are confused?

My ex-Wife of nearly 20 years recently divorced me to live with my older biological brother. This is causing alot of confusion for my children and the rest of my family. I have been to parenting classes, and have gone to counseling and am over what my ex and my brother are doing. I am terrified on what this is doing to my children or what damage it will cause for them in the future! My ex is constantly causing problems for my children not to spend time with me. I ex has lied to the court about her expenses and income, causing me to pay over 70% of my income to her. I have proof of my ex's lies-in court documentation-guilt by her own admission! I need help?

You can either try to modify custody, or lower your payments!! In this case I would ask for a Court Ordered 730 evaluation based upon the alleged psychological damages. If you are in SoCal you can call me for a free telephone consultation at 818-998-1584.

First, get your children into counseling, you have good reason to believe that your children may be confused. Second, get your self a good attorney, if you have proof it should be brought to the attention of the court. It sounds like you cannot afford not to have an attorney. You may have evidence, but it must be admissable evidence. If you have an attorney, ask him to explain how you got where you are. You obviously cannot give us all of the facts within the short question, there could be other issues that you need to consider. 70% of your income might be a good deal if you have a dozen children and maybe there are other circumstances that 70% is the correct amount although that certainly seems very high. Good Luck, Pat McCrary
