re: Can anyone recommend a lawyer in BR for child custody issue?

Yeah it works that way when both parents are cool with it—it’s def the best thing for the child 100% and I’m glad it worked for you. I’m assuming the mother was somewhat okay with it and didn’t fight it very hard, which is great and tells me she’s at least putting the child first for the most part.

In my case, I have to deal with a mother who takes the entire situation personal and every act is part of an entire grand scheme meant to hurt me. Judge specifically asked me what I want—“to have my son as much as possible.” To which they hit me with the every other weekend and a summer/holiday schedule. I consider myself a textbook father and have no negative strikes against me at all fwiw.

Maybe it’s just my specific parish/district judges that differ from the norm idk.
