Re: what can i do about the way my lawyer and juge did
Three questions you might want to considering asking your lawyer:
1. Why did they go forward with the proceeding after you took the time to fax you very credible explanation as to why you couldn't be there?
2. Is there still time to file a motion for
reconsideration of the court's desision?
3. If not, what other remedies or avenues
may be available for you to recover custody of your child(ren)?
