Hi my name is Ric, I am beyond stressed and dismantled, on my last faith and hope to win my custody case. Quick background I’ve done well for my self and made great money I’m a younger man but have always been a supportive loving once single father to 3 beautiful kids 2 sons 11 year and 1 year old , a beautiful soul of a daughter 6 years old all 3 have separate mothers I’ve been divorced twice, and I am now with a greatfuture wife that supports me but we are struggling to get back on our feet after a move to better our life from Tucson to Phx. im a recovering alcoholic and after years in sobriety I relapsed and got in trouble with the law(alcohol induced issue) but the mother of my 11 year old used this to deem me a detriment to my 11 year old son that I have had sole custody after divorce. And has taken him on under emergency Temporary Custody Orders filed by using my criminal case against me I am a goodwilled person and absolutely a loving caring supportive father. I had a rough life growing up and very tough life growing up with out caring parents or any support. I am sober since the incident going on 8 months and will maintain sobriety day to day for the rest of my life. I learned my lessons I can’t drink even 1 drop I am a alcoholic for lifelong. And now have outpatient and AA support and sponsored I help my community of AA members aswell passionately.
now that I am fixing my life It’s so hard with keeping up with my criminal case attorney payments I’m still making but it also opened a can of worms for me in the family law department and I am fighting the case alone against her and her attorney and she wants to take full custody and charge child support and all due to spite and her narcissistic tendencies.
the CPS deemed our home for my 11 year old son cleared and supporting good for return. It was an alcoholism substance abuse issue(I only addicted to alcohol nothing else) as long as I remain sober I can and will strive to thrive like I always have. I don’t have the means to hire a lawyer or attorney and can’t afford retainer or apply for credit at the moment I don’t qualify for Free Court appointed attorney. I’m stuck and my trial for his custody is coming up in less than a month all consultations with attorneys have been $7k to $15k(which to me is understandable but ridiculously expensive to afford) I don’t want to to loose my sons custody he and I are devasted he loves me and I been having supervised visits with him and wants to come back home he has been with me for 95% of his life and his mother disregarding it to have the upper hand and show she can hurt me she thinks I won sole custody and kidnapped him when she lost it due to her poor prioritization of our son and parenting classes, and after being separated for years not knowing we weren’t finalized in divorce 3 years ago I filed to finalize it and she was not willing to sign and wanted to get back together she already had another kid with someone else and I was in a loving happy relationship.
which is why she is doing this to get vengeance on something that was not intentional or malicious. She was diagnosed BPD and narcissistic, and thinks this will hurt me and sabotage my sobriety and current healthy relationship. But all she is doing is hurting our son and his siblings.
please if anyone out there has alittle bit of empathy and even sympathy (been through this)
To me $7k-15k is a lot to ask for but it will help tremendously retain a feasible and reliable attorney so my son and I can be reunited. I am so faithful and grateful beyond measure with belief. I believe in God’s grace through people’s deeds. And once I get back on my feet I plan on paying it forward. And thinking of becoming a legal supporter for young fathers and mothers with struggling matters in their families and substance abuse issues.
i pray and bless in advance.
please please if able to spare and are able to only help me get my family back together.
