The article below is from my experiences and reflects what my family encountered during our Child Custody Battle, for obvious reasons I will state that the comments below reflect my opinion, but I feel they are well founded.

From these experiences I have also concluded, that no amount of preparation, will prepare you for a Child Custody Battle.
