Legal Question in Family Law in Iowa

I am a single mother of an 8 year old boy. His father just recently came into his life last June, his father wanted to get my son for the entire summer and I told him no, so he's gotten a lawyer and is filing a petition for custody, I have a lawyer to but feel he is incompetant, but I can not afford anyone else. What are the chances of his father getting custody? Points of interest, history of domestic abuse, alcoholic, and was not in my sons life for his first 7 years.

I'd suggest that you hire another attorney if you do not like the one you have.
