California: Motion to Quash service of Summons in a custody case?

You didn't insult anyone, but we don't hand hold over here. There isn't enough time in the day, nor are there enough people in every state of the union who could sit and walk you through this. I will tell you this. There are self help clinics in every county in CA that MAY be able to help you along a bit. That help may come in the form of reading and suggesting or giving you a book to read for you to help yourself, but CA courts are REALLY busy. My courtroom was nonstop and at some point, you just have to tell people know.

Granted, my experience comes from LA County, can't speak much for Placer or Sacramento County

Thank you for your recommendations. I have a question though: Once I file the motion for change of venue, will I need to personally serve the other party on that, or it does not require proof of service? Also can I write a Declaration instead of Affidavit in support of my motion? thanks.

Based on your questions, you really need an attorney.

Anything filed with the court requires service, but I have to agree with Zigner. You need an attorney.
