Re: child support/attaining custody

Unfortunately, custody cases can be complex and very expensive. As a result, you will likely find that attornyes quote retainer feees for several thousand dollars. However, an experienced attorney is critical for a custody case.

The case is commenced by filing a Motion to determine or modify custody. That Motion must be supported by an affidavit. If the court believes that there isa legal basis to change custody, they will often appoint a custody evaluator to investigate the issues and make recomendations related to custory. The entire process could take up to a year or more.
