Latest Legal Questions & Answers

Child Custody
Family
Prenuptial Agreements

What are my rights as a father in a child custody case?

I’m battling for equal custody of my 10 year old daughter and it seems that at every court hearing the judge has a preference for giving custody to her mother. I thought I had the same rights to custody as the mother but that doesn’t seem to be the case. The judge even asked me at the first temporary hearing how I thought I’d be able to handle my daughter’s needs as she gets older. I am just as good of a parent as the mother, probably better. Do I have equal rights as the father and can I get shared custody? Is there some preference that courts have in Virginia for awarding custody of children to the mother, especially if the child is a girl? What do I have to show to a judge to prove that I can parent my daughter as well as her mother can?

Do I need a U.S. or Russian lawyer for a prenup agreement?

My fiancé and I are dual citizens of Russia and the U.S. We are going to be getting married in Russia but then moving for at least some time to Charlotte, VA for my first work assignment. I have property in Russia that I inherited from my grandparents and I want my fiancé to sign a prenup agreeing that she won’t try to take that property if our marriage is not successful. Because we are marrying in Russia, do I need a Russian lawyer to draft this type of agreement, or should a U.S. lawyer do it since we’ll be living there? If I do need a Russian or international lawyer, how do I find one with experience in prenuptial agreement drafting?

What expenses is child support supposed to cover?

I pay child support to my children’s father because he has primary custody of them due to me traveling frequently for work. I am always on time with payments and owe no back support. The problem is that he is constantly asking me for additional money for various things, like their school trips, clothes, fees for sports. He says what I pay in child support doesn’t cover these extra things, it only covers the basics like housing, food, and health insurance. I thought child support was supposed to take care of all of their expenses when they are with him. He says if I don’t contribute to the extra expenses he’ll just seek a higher child support payment. What is child support actually supposed to cover and can he get more support if he takes me back to court?
