Much more information is needed to assess your situation. The legal issues must be determined before any legal documents are created and submitted to the court. A good friend of mine in the legal profession once said developing the issues in a family law case and properly bringing the matter before the court is not an " add water and stir" situation. Please meet with an experienced family law attorney to explore your legal options.
