You should have an attorney representing you if you are involved in a custody dispute.
You can get a conditional license from DMV that will allow you to drive to and from work. Additionally, you may be able to work out a payment...
Child support enforcement can freeze your bank account once you are a few months in arrears.
I agree with my colleagues. It is a bad idea to go to court without an attorney.
No. Your payments are based on your income once it is established that you are paying support.
Yes. And you can lose custody if you move with the child out of state without his consent or permission from the court.
No. There is a conflict of interest because he represented your ex on what is essentially the same matters.
No. The court will only look at his income and earning ability when determining child support.
A judge is likely to consider those things when determining what is in the best interest of your child.
