Summary
In Pennsylvania, if you cannot afford your current child support payments, you can file a petition for modification with the Domestic Relations Section of your county court. Provide evidence of your changed financial circumstances and attend a hearing to present your case. To request a judge to subpoena the mothers bank records, file a Motion for Discovery specifying the records needed and their relevance. If denied, consider filing an appeal or reconsideration request. For homeschooling, submit a notarized affidavit, provide educational objectives, maintain a portfolio, conduct standardized testing, and submit an annual evaluation. In custody disputes over education, the court considers the childs best interests, each parents reasons, the childs needs, and the quality of educational plans.Full Conversation

Hi Brett! How can I assist you with your legal issue today?
How do i ask a potential attorney how often they win custodial cases before a certain judge and against a specific other attorney
Hey Brett! You can ask the potential attorney something like this:
"Can you share your track record for winning custodial cases before Judge [Judge's Name] and when opposing attorney [Opposing Attorney's Name]?"
This will give you an idea of their experience and success rate in similar situations.
