Thanks for sharing the swimming situation you suffered - that was very brave. This may be something you choose to share with your current IC as well. Sometimes there's things in our childhood too we 'forgot', which can be brought out and looked at. It happened to me. It's good to know about these things, but when it comes it's hard to face, and very hard to address.
Have you told you L about all the stuff you're enduring with H, particulalry viz parenting?
I filed our Consent Orders in the Magistrates Court (COurt of Summary Jurisdiction). Not sure what state you're in, but I'm sure you'd have some derivative of the Magistrates Court. Mine took about 2 weeks to be made and sealed. Ask your lawyer about options for filing jurisdcitions.
If he doesnt have a lawyer then your L would write to him direct.
