father becoming custodial parent and changing child support orders
I have recently become the custodial parent for my 9 year old daughter.
I have been paying child support to her mother from day one. She and I have signed and notarized a document stating that our daughter now lives with me. The District Attorney will not provide us with any help in changing the existing child support order, still demading that I make payment even though I have custody. Now my drivers liscence is being revoked and I cannot find any help on my own without utilizing the services of an attorney, which I cannot afford. Does anyone have any advise. Thank You Todd from TX |

Thank You Todd from TX Doesn't cost anything to write or contact your state representative. There is no 800 number to help fathers, you're going to have to do some leg work! Get in touch with your local father's group too, maybe they have some experience with this! Maybe once verybody starts complaining enough to the useless political windbags, maybe they's get fed up and do something to change this useless system? |

Thank You Todd from TX The DA cant file anything for you, he isnt your lawyer. Find out if any legal aid agencies exist in you town. Call job and family services and ask them what might be available. Find out about fathers rights groups in Texas. It possible you can file the papers yourself but I dont know what is and isnt allowed in Texas. Call the people that you send the check to and stay polite but find out who has the athority to put a hold on the drivers licence problem, then call them and find out what court paperwork they would need.

Your comments are naive and misleading, no government agency is going to help this poor fellow, there's no reason to! |

Thank You == You have to file for a modification--yesterday! DA can't change the order, only a judge can. You don't need an attorney to file for a mod. BTW, notorized statements are useless--you have to get the order modified. |

BTW, notorized statements are useless--you have to get the order modified. Good advice. The reason the DA is not acting in this case is they only represent the state's interests. The state has no interest in custody or visitation issues. They only care about paternity and CS orders where the state gets a percentage of the result. The irony is the DA's are arrogant attorneys and won't take the time to point you in the right direction. Once you get the custody change completed and the new CS order in place through the court you can ask CSE to provide IV-D services through the DA. |

Don't see what cause they have to be arrogant about, it's not as if they were working on the top criminal cases. Personally, If I were a lawyer or judge in the law profession, I'd be too embarrassed to admit I'm working for a collection agency which is in the same league as ambulance chasing. |
