What can you do for me as a parent in the middle of a custody case?
This is a very big question with so many ways to answer it. We do custody cases daily, as they are a major issue for so many of our clients in Los Angeles, and across the United States.
We often do work in other states for clients in the middle of custody battles, because even if one parent moves to a different state with the child, the court case will continue to be held in the original court in Los Angeles. Even if the original court case was out of Los Angeles, the case can sill revert back to LA. This means that we handle the parts of the investigation that happen in Los Angeles while our client still continues their life in the other state.
Often, our clients are fighting for their rights as parents, fighting to see their children, or needing to get child support from a parent who is lying about income. We may do surveillance and follow the parent to see if and where they are working or making money.
We also get hired to prove one parent is unfit or completely ignoring the child’s wellbeing. Unfortunately, we find ourselves in the middle of cases where one parent has an undiagnosed mental illness or where the parent is not taking their prescribed medication for a mental illness. In this instance, we must show proof of the behavior that is often hidden behind the closed doors of a home.
Why We Are Important for Difficult Child Custody Cases
We get involved in a so many convoluted cases that are hard to prove or capture on camera because lawyers don’t have the abilities that we do to investigate. A lawyer’s job is to represent a client and work for them in court and in front of a judge. A lot of people mistakenly think that an attorney does all the background searches (sometimes they do, but theirs are not the same as ours). But the truth is, many attorneys hire us to do the investigation so that they can take the information and build their case with it.
The clients that have the most success in court are usually the ones that have a lawyer as well as a good private investigator. As ridiculous as this may sound, it is simply how the court systems have evolved. Unfortunately, the truth is often something you have to pay for in order to “prove it.”
We help guide you, even down to the details of how to properly conduct yourself on social media while going through a custody battle.
