Legal Question in Family Law in Georgia

You are writing to an internet forum, not a law firm. If you want to retain a lawyer, and you certainly should, you need to contact lawyers in your area who handle these cases.

You are in a contested divorce involving children. You needed a lawyer the day you received the summons and you will face a disaster unless you retaiun counsel in a timely fashion. You urgently need to log off the computer, head for a lawyer's office and retain counsel.

This is a common ploy used by spouses (mostly women) to get a leg up in the underlying divorce. Don't be too surprised if the next step is a domestic violence petition to kick you out of the house/apartment and to obtain immediate possession of the children.

You should discuss with counsel the best way to deal with it. However, don't ignore the matter. This could put your bank account and job at risk.

If you need additional information, I am available to discuss this matter further. [email protected]
