Child Custody

questions & answers

Question: I have custody of my 2 girls. I live in Colorado and their Dad lives in Texas. His last visit he had the girls for 8 weeks over summer. He decided he did not want to return them and got a restraining order against me stating that I did not provide medical and dental care for my children. His support payments just went up. I had to hire an attorney in Texas to get my children back. They are home but he continues to cause trouble by calling CPS. They came out and found nothing wrong and left. He wants them again in Nov. how do I protect myself so he does not do this all over again.

Answer: You may want to consult an attorney for your situation.  As you are not in Arizona, I can not provide you with legal information.  Check your county court's page to see if they have self help forms on modifying custody.
