More Mail From Family Court


Mail at least once every month or more from the courts is not unusual. 
Parents have multiple boxes full f documents. Some family court cases go on for 18 years plus. Parents who have spent more than $50,000 in lawyer's fees, and been through several lawyers, have lots of paperwork.

These parents are beyond stressed out. 
These parents trusted legal counsel and with each new counsel provided the paperwork of the case. So many parents feel defeated and find it hard to continue fighting for their children. The mail from the family court, the friend of the court, and special agencies is never-ending. People are traumatized by family court and believe it or not, the mail as well. Imagine getting mail every month or more for 18 years form family court? If you're feeling defeated by mountains of papers, mail, or forms here are tips on what to focus on first.

Pick a time when you can really focus on what you are doing with little distractions. 
If you spread out the task over a few days, leave yourself a note where you left off. While going through each document place them in a pile. Make sure to set the trash can nearby to throw away anything not needed. Here are some ideas for piles:  
Motions/Hearings                     Order After Hearings
Medical Expenses                     Birth Records
Child Support Payments           Lawyer Fees
Psychological Evaluation         Contracts
Taxes                                         Pension Plans
Deeds                                        Real Estate
Manuscript                                Transcripts

Discovery
Answers to interrogatories
Responses to documents
Deposition transcripts

A filing system is a good idea. Some parents have a key or table of contents. They list what is in each folder. Some hole punch and put in a binder by chronical order or by date. (Don’t forget to print anything you type up and submitted to the courts.) Here is a list of some folders to create. Make sure each year is separated and filed in the same way as previous years. They call this unified file organization.  Colors and number are a great tool to use to file as well.

Stress-free and easy to find. You organize so when you need the paperwork, it’s easy to find and saves time. When moving a document, put a small sticky note on the papers in front of where the papers you are removing. Put what document goes back in that spot. This makes putting the documents away easy.

Teachers Silent About Child Suicide In Family Court Cases

A teacher messaged a divorce coach and stated, “Unless you are a teacher in _____, you would not know about the suicide by children caused by the family court.” Teachers who have children in their classroom and know of parents custody battle see the other parent obtain custody and then they hear of that child committing suicide. No one else is close to children that they could mentally track this happening. A mother's children went to a charter school when she went through a divorce. The parents did ride share with the neighbor. The neighbor eventually had to come to the mother to let her know that when it was the former spouses time to get the kids, he was not picking up her kids per the agreement everyone had. He would not get the children from school and would never notify her he was not getting the children. He would also go see the children at lunch and tell them he was going to get them after school and to not go with the rideshare mom. The school was getting ve...

Your Lawyer Will Not Return Your Calls.

No one really wants to tell you what is going on and everyone in the office gives you an excuse. Lawyers are busy and here is what could be going on. Lawyers have high aspirations to help others. Your lawyer could be avoiding telling you the unpleasant truth. He/She may avoid you until they can figure a way to solve a problem in your case. This may take lots of research and they will call when they have a strategy, or the problem solved. Your lawyer is working on a high-profile case. You are not your lawyer’s only client, and your business alone will not pay your lawyer’s bills. Efficient clients who know how to get to the point and move on are more likely to get a return call. Lawyers meet crucial deadlines. The law has statutes of limitations and if they are missed it could be a grave mistake in the case. They spend hours researching and preparing each case. They have lots of meetings. Meetings with clients, interviewing witnesses, taking d...

Whose On The Sex Offender List Other Than Sex Offenders

Now, I know that men who get caught going pee outside are put on the sex offender list , but I had no clue that if you attempted kidnapping of a minor or interference with custody of children, you go on the list as well. Megan’s Law created the sex offender list. The board of sex offenders is responsible for determining if a convicted sex offender meets the definition of a sexually violent predator or pose the highest risk for re-offending. These boards are on board with lawmakers plans to introduce legislation that only individuals convicted of sexually motivated crimes to register as sex offenders. If someone interference with custody of children, they are going on the sex offender list. Not clear on this one, but if a grandparent interferes will custody they go on the list? Not sure how this works, but if that happened it would be kidnapping. A noncustodial parent convicted of violating a court order or otherwise improperly taking their own children has been added t...
