Yeah, right. There is such a thing as "Father's Rights" in the Family Court System, I just haven't seen it. Father's need to take matters into their own hands when it comes to gaining custody of their children. Such was the case with Darren Jones. He had a great relationship with his daughter, a wonderful job and a beautiful wife. Until one day his wife decided she wanted nothing to do with him, and made that same decision for their daughter. All Mr. Jones had to do was file divorce papers, claim that the father had been a non-existent part of their daughters life, and demand custody. Without any proof, the mother was then given an order for custody, and Mr. Jones was relegated to seeing his beloved daughter every other weekend. Mr. Jones set out on his journey to get back his child, but found that the courts do not simply hand ANYTHING over to men. In fact, he realized the expensive lawyer he had hired thought his job description was to stall the whole issue as long as he could, as did Mrs. Jones' representation. Each court hearing yielded the same results. NOTHING. Every time he walked out of the courtroom, the feeling of desperation became more and more overwhelming. At many times in his battle, he thought long and hard about giving up. "What's the use?" He thought, "Nothing will ever change." Years went bye, and as his daughter aged, his time became less and less with her. After time, her mothers alienation techniques began to work, and his daughter ended up seeing him a week or two in the summer, and that was it. Please, understand that this scenario is a very real picture of what happens to most men. They try very hard to gain equal rights in the court system, but fail almost every time. It is a very real and urgent situation, that you do NOT want to happen to you. You do have a chance. There are things that men can do to ensure themselves of a fair an equitable divorce in the Family Law system. But first you need to find the right information that can help you understand this system. If you do not take the time to research what you can do to help your case, no lawyer or legal professional can ever help you. Look at this ebook by FamilyLawSecrets.com It has shown countless numbers of fathers what steps to take and what pitfalls to avoid during this trying time.

I guarantee that your wife (or ex-wife) knows what she needs to do to take your children away from you. Fight back, and never give up on your children.

Custody - Father's Rights

My brother is having the same issue. He is the primary caregiver (stipulated by both parents in court), his wife is a spousal abuser (the family investigator found credible evidence that she abused my brother), her family of origin is severely mentally ill (father tried to kill mother or mother so delusional believed father tried to kill mother - either one not a good environment for a 5 year old child) and yet a judge in Colorado appointed by Governor Ritter only four months ago allowed the abusive mother to move to another state with the child.
Then my brother went to the state where they still had a home (they were trying to sell) and this same judge had him court ordered out of his OWN home in another state. In addition, the state of CO had no jurisdiction, but the judge back dated the dates in the court order, so that the court did - if he had not done so the court could not have given rights for the mother to move.
In addition, CO supposedly has best interest of the child laws which the judge disregarded. The judge even disregarded the court appointed family investigators strong recommendation that the child NOT be moved. How can this happen? My brother chose to stay at home and take care of their child, the mother has been shown to be mentally ill with a propensity towards violence and the CFI stated this would be undue trauma for the child and yet none of that mattered!
Then to top it off when you call the Governor's office they will tell you that while they put judges in office they will not review them.
Well isn't that nice. The only review process will take months and since this judge has shown a complete disregard for the laws and ethics of CO, what damage will be done in the meantime.
Just unbelievable that we say we want men to step up to the plate and then when they do we still allow the woman greater rights even when shown she is the much lesser parent.
Thank you for your references I will pass those along to my brother with the hopes they can offer him some help!
