Legal Question in Family Law in Iowa
My sister has just grained custody of her children after 13 months. They were in foster care for physical abuse by her husband, (not the father) She spends every weekend with the abuser and there is a 5 years no contact with the children. She sends the children to stay with his older children.
I feel this is unsafe as they should not have anything to do with his family and this only encourages the children to prolong contact with him. I feel they are very much at risk and am considering applying for guardianship.
Would it be worth my time and money?

You could, but you'd have to hire your own counsel and fund it out of your own pocket. That adds up fast at the going rate for hiring an attorney and they would want money up front. The possible result would be problematic because (I presume) the court has already passed judgment on the matter.
