Legal Question in Family Law in Texas
My wife was in an abusive marriage prior to us marry. She had 3 children and the ex kidnapped them in a corner store 8yrs ago. She was advice by her parents to let it be. So she left it alone for fear of this man, what he could do to her, or the children, with a record of family abuse. She was 17 at time the first was born 21 at time of last.
Now at 32, with my(her husbands) support she wants to reach out to her children.
We went to courthouse couple days ago and found an final order for custody that she did not know anything about. She never got served with any papers to appear in court. 99 percent of it is in his favor, what can my wife( or we) do to get visitation or more with the children?

Your wife needs to talk to a good family law attorney. This is too complicated for an email. She can call my office if she wants to set up a consultation.
