Summary
In Arkansas, child custody and support arrangements can be established through the court system. If there is no existing legal agreement, you can file a petition in your local family court. The court will evaluate both parents financial situations and make custody decisions based on the childrens best interests. If facing false accusations, gather evidence to refute them, such as witness statements or drug test results. Consulting a family lawyer is advisable, but if acting per se, focus on presenting evidence and communicating directly with the court.Full Conversation
My kids mother hasn't had much of anything to do with them in approximately 12 years. She does not help support them at all.
It sounds like you're dealing with a child support or custody situation. To help you better, could you tell me if there is any existing legal agreement regarding child support or custody?
No legal agreement.
It sounds like you may need to establish a legal agreement for child support or custody. In Utah, the courts can help determine child support obligations and make custody arrangements. Would you like more information on how to start this process, or do you have a specific question about it?
