Hi all,
I am going to file for divorce in December and I need recommendations for a strong lawyer who can fight for custody well.
I am just going to summarize a few things.
-Husband is abusive (I have a PPO and a few police reports against him)
-He was never involved with the child.
-I left the matrimonial home in July 2020 and have been taking care of my daughter on my own and with my parents
-He has not paid child maintenance and still have not been involved.
-During the court hearing under the Guardian and Infant Act, the judge pushed for interim sole care and control to me and with joint custody
-Due to COVID the supervised exchange is now on hold.
Is my case strong enough to get sole custody? Or do you all know any that can push for it? Can I provide flexible access times as I do not want him near my daughter (18 months now) who does not know him and was never close to him.
Thank you all <3
