Well,
I got up at 6am and took Alex to the airport:(, then I went home and jumped online looking for lawyers. I found 186 in Dallas that deal with custody. I called about 12 and left messages. I got a call back from a lawyer and arranged to see her at 10am. I went by my x's house to get a copy of the papers that have been served. I asked my x to ride with me and he did (even though he is sick).
Well, I have some good news!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 1---my son doesn't have to go to court and talk with the judge cause they have shown no grounds to have him interviewed. 2----I don't have to appear cause I haven't been served. 3---My x will tell the judge their is no reason for this lawsuit and we were not given any time to attain a lawyer. 4---The lawyer didn't charge us for the legal advice or for seeing her today.
So, this is the first step and also a big sigh of relief for me and my x. We don't want my son in the middle of this at all and so far we don't have to.
The law firm my x mother in law has attained is a viscious one (quoting the lawyer we spoke with today), so I doubt this is over, but we have won the first small battle.
I am in better spirits and am a little more confident about our case.
Just wanted to update everyone.
Love,
Jesika
