Jag I did the process last year and JAG sucked. They only work for officers. Give them a try first and then move on to DCF,DHS,DHSH or whatever the agency is called in your state. I am currently active duty in the Navy and these were my experiences. You've only been in five months you'll learn...

Atwist The father is doing this beause he thinks it will get him out of the 14K in back child support he owes and possible have the mother pay him childsupport for kids he doesn't want. Now if the mother never mentioned to the lawyer that she didn't have primary physical custody of childern...

Thank You Thank you, I greatly appreciate everyones take on the situation. Father made no effort to contact the children when they lived in the same state and made even less of an effort when we moved. The custody agreement states father has primary physical custody of the children, Mother...
