Wow Were to start Well I have bin with my Girlfriend for 3 years now. We have a fresh 8 moth old baby. And She Has a 6 year old Kid with Her X husband. I have bin suffering for 2 years now with here and her x fighting about there son. Im really tired of hearing about it and we get into a lot of fights because Im just so tired of hearing it. His father has bin out of his life for two of the 6 years and was ordered to go to rehab a number of years ago for drugs and alcahol and never even completed the rehab. He was alowed Visitation every other Weekend and thursdays. That was fine with my girlfriend. But what happend was about a week ago. My girl friend started getting anxiety and bells Polisy witch makes her face go knomb when shes very depressed and stressed out. Not to mention she has very bad eyesight. Well She took the kids to a soccer game last week and she had all her semptoms of her stress and bad eyesight. Her x called the cops saying she was drunk. But she doesnt even drink all she does is take perscribed Zaneks for stress. Well the cops came arrested her and gave her a drunk in public because she couldnt pass the eye sobrity test and the line. They arrensted her and took her in jail over night they didnt give her a breatherliser or blood test. Here X then schedualed a Imediate custody court hearing. And now her X wants 50/50 custody. And wants her to go to rehab and only have day for visitation a week that is supervised. What can she do we dont have enough money for a lawyer. I dont want to suffer anymore!!!

    Go to your county Legal Aid office. They will provide legal advice for free if you fall below the income guidelines.

    She should have immediately requested a breathalizer test. Since she did not, she will have to hire and attorney/lawyer. She will also need her doctor to either notarize a statement about her condition and how it can mimic drunkenness, or she will need them to come to court to testify.

    IF this is the only offense she has on record, a good attorney will be able to prevent her ex from getting 50/50 custody or for her to need to go to rehab.

    There is NO WAY to avoid getting & paying for an attorney if she wants to keep those children as the custodial parent.
