Answer: You and your ex have joint legal decision-making rights.  It sounds like the two of you have some hostile feelings and cannot work out an agreement you are both comfortable with.  There are several programs offering low cost attorney consults.  There are 3 programs in Arizona that you can use to get some inexpensive legal advice and guidance.  One is the Modest Means Program.  If you are financially qualified for the program, for a $75 fee, Modest Means  offers a one hour consult with an attorney.  If you need additional help and the attorney agrees to take your case, the fee charged will not exceed $75 per hour.  The telephone number is (866)637-5341.  Both the Maricopa and Pima County Bar Associations have lawyer referral programs that offer a 30 minute consult with an experienced attorney.  Maricopa County's Lawyer Referral Service offers a 30 minute consult for a fee of $40.  The telephone number is (602) 257-4434.  You live in Phoenix, so the Maricopa County Lawyer Referral Service would apply to you.
