I have 2 children with my ex and he has not seem them for a year because he was abusive with them in means of language and hitting our oldest daughter and she was only 6.. After that he said he would not bother the kids until they wanted to see him because they were scared of him.. I have physical custody of them and he only has supervised visitation on the weekend for 4 hrs…
Now he is taking me back to court to see the kids..
This is a bit of his history. Drugs, Alcohol Abuse, Violence..Just a bad situation and my daughters are both sacred of him because of what he has done to them…
My question is as follows: We have been to court before over and over again and he sees them for a month and then decides not to but i would like to know how and if i can obtain the records from when he got arrested for drugs and dwi..
He also recently had a situation where he was molesting his own niece.. Should i get a court appointed lwr ? Can i get his records on my own.. Please help…
Also wondering if there is a way to get a real lawyer instead of court appointed one, My only problem is that I dont have that much money because i am paying for everything and never recieve support..
Also this is in NYS If that helps..
Thanks deb
