You can request the appointment of a Guardian Ad Litem, and/or request an in chambers interview of the children with the Judge. Call us to discuss 8007939859
If you want to change custody you should file a Motion to Modify. If the custody judgment was entered more than 2 years ago your burden lowers to best interests. I agree that you should consult with an attorney of your choice about this important issue. After you have filed your motion the court may consider appointing a children's representative, or GAL. The court may also send both you and your ex-husband to mediation over this issue.
