Post Divorce questions

Dear Viper:

Greetings. First, I only have the time to review forum posts made in this forum, as service to my clients must come first and takes up a lot of my time. Nevertheless, I am sure that I can answer your questions contained herein.

  1. Yes, you can certainly ask for child support now, even if you said previously that you would not ask for the same.

  2. Yes, if you have an order for custody, file a Motion and Order to Show Cause against her for violating the agreement. If the language of your order will not uphold such a motion, you can file a claim for child custody. I would tell you to document what she is saying by sending her letters asking (not telling) her to cease and desist the statements she is making because they are negatively impacting the children and your relationship with the children.

  3. It depends on what documents you have determining custody as to what you can do about limiting visitation. Generally no, without a custody order limiting the visitation you cannot do so, but there are some exceptions to this.

  4. Contact information yes. Employer information no.

  5. What a loaded question. Can you please tell me what you want to know exactly in the realm of custody? Thank you.

The response posted above is based upon the limited factual information made available and is not intended as a full and complete response to the question. The only reliable manner to obtain complete and adequate legal advice is to consult with an attorney, fully explain your situation, and allow the attorney sufficient opportunity to research the applicable law and facts required to render an accurate opinion. The basic information provided above is intended as a public service but a full discussion with an attorney should be undertaken before taking any action.

I have a more detailed post in the emotion section of the forum, that gives more detail to the below questions.

If I agreed not to ask for child support at the time I was granted Sole Custody, can I ask for it now (3 years later)?

Is there any way to stop my X from telling our children things about me that are not true, and are quite slanderous?

Can I legally limit my X’s visitation until she agrees to stop filling our children
