Same here Paul. My W is at her lawyer executing our D papers as we speak. Even in my state (Alabama), although there is a joint custody “preference” the dads get the shaft most of the time. The “law” is not worth the paper it is written on. Unless you can prove the mom is “unfit” you have a very uphill battle. I will go for 50% custody but most likely will be wasting my money and time.
My W was very agreeable up until now but emotionally she could not go through with drafting up her own D agreements. So now the lawyers are involved which will lead to no good for anyone involved – especially my kids. Try to solve as much as you can before the wolves show up.
