   research the laws of your state,file the motions,pay the fees and make sure you understand the laws and procedures. It is not easy,but can be done. I won custody without a lawyer from an ex that really isn’t a bad mother.

   added. A big thing is keeping personal notes of anything that happens when dealing with the other parent,have a witness if possible and involve the cops if needed. Don’t use the cops in a reckless manner though.

   You would probably have to speak to your ex partner without becoming emotional so that the communication can be kept at a nice comfortable level. If you show any emotion at all about the situation you are in then that person may use it against you. Tread carefully and go with peace.

   there are “groups” on the net that have vast files of legal documents, start typing in names that pertain to Custody and find 2 or 3 to join, once a member they will be able to either help or steer you in the right direction. You can also go to your local library and use their Law Books. Filing a motion will cost you a standard fee, but no where near what a lawyer will charge. Remember to be as accurate as possible with your wording, but also understand the Court will be lenient due to the fact you are a layman. Do not let the paperwork overwhelm you, once you get into it, you will find it isn’t as difficult as it may seem. You can also call legal aid for pointers or at least a hint as to where to begin. Law Students are also a good source of information.
