At the Morris Firm for Men, we’ve seen it all before. Divorce and custody law are complex in many cases, but there is a certain type of challenge that leaves many fathers intimidated and daunted by the court process, or feeling discouraged about ever seeing their children again.
Here are three very important things to keep in mind as you move through the process, things that may very well help.
You Have the Desire to Bond
If you have the sincere desire to bond with your children and improve their lives, court systems will ultimately value this. It’s a matter of finding the path to an equitable result, and achieving reconciliation by removing obstacles that stand in your way. Again, we know that this is challenging – we have experience with many of these cases, where it wasn’t as simple as just saying “we’ll sort out joint custody.” But our point is that your genuine love for your children is a powerful asset to us, and to you. Treasure it, and we will help you to work toward utilizing your rights under the law.
Your Attorney Knows the Landscape
Let’s be clear – if you’re not an attorney, you are not in charge of understanding all of the arcane, incomprehensible and sometimes foolish-seeming legislation and judicial process around custody. We are. We will provide that guidance to you, and work hard for you as a father. One of the most important parts of the work that these attorneys do in this practice area is keeping clients informed and involved in their cases. If your attorney doesn’t do this – you chose the wrong firm.
We specialize in father’s rights, and we bring care and dedication to these cases on your behalf.
Your Case Has a Resolution
Again, we know it can be challenging, but it’s also helpful to keep in mind that in nearly all cases, a resolution is possible. Some are harder than others, but eventually, with the help of professional attorneys, parties tend to come to some form of agreement. Yes, there is an emotional background to many of these cases. We anticipate that, too. That’s a key part of the attorney’s work – to frame these cases well, and to help work though the different aspects of how a case got difficult to begin with.
