Legal Question in Family Law in South Carolina
childcustody
My ex husband has custody of my 2 children they are 9 and 10 yeahrs old . When we divorced i told him he can have full custody sence i didnt have a job and im from another country so i didnt really know the laws. Everything went good with me seeing my kids all the time till he got another women now they are not married . He gave her Power of attorney for the children for educational desions and medical treatment. He is a out on the road all week due to his work so his new women had the kids all week. She is telling me i cant see the kids and when there is a problem while the kids are with me i call there dad on the phone she tells me i cant call him i have to talk to her and if i call again she will restrict me from seeing the kids . She said i have no rights no visitation or anyhting. What are her rights and what are my rights?

Re: childcustody
She has NO rights with regard to your children. She is attempting to exercise HIS rights, which she can do as long as you allow her to do so.
If you have an interest in getting custody of the children, you can get proof that he is leaving the children with her all week and then petition the Court for custody based on those circumstances.
These are complex issues, and it is important that they be handled correctly. Therefore, it is important that you consult an experienced family law attorney to find out what options are available to you based on the facts of your particular case.
