PLZ HELP... Which Direction Do We Go?

Call the police about the harrassment. Call the State Attorney General about the child support and the IRS about the side businesses. You can make life hell for him because he virtually invited you to do it.

David Hughey
Best Family Law attorney!!! I am using him again on another child custody case. He will get this settled, and retrobution for the damages.

He is located in Richardson, but will work your case and meet you.

First off I would contact the DA's office in Tarrant County for a Protective Order. If you have documents you can obtain one for 2 years and he can not come within 200 yards of your house or employement.

Second I would contact Kay Lynn Boll. She was my lawyer to have my daughter's father's rights terminated. She knows everything. She also will work a payment plan if needed.

I have referred her many times and everyone has been pleased. If she can't help you she will know who can and will let you know.

CS, before you contact the IRS I would suggest consulting with an attorney. If he avoided taxes during your marriage it can come back to bite you -- the "innocent spouse" claim is not what everyone thinks it is and I know this because one of my friend is a tax attorney.

There are pro's and con's in any case, and especially one such as yours. The Setzer Law Firm is my recommendation -- they are consistent in returning your phone calls, offer a reasonable hourly rate, and are dedicated to their clients. You can call ###-###-#### or visit the website at www.setzerlawfirm.com

Best of luck to you!

CS, everyone's suggestions below are great. I would also keep in mind that you will need physical proof of the things he is doing. Talk to your attorney about this need as well.

Hi CS,

There are two organizations in Fort Worth that help women reclaim their lives from spouses.

Safe Haven: http://www.safehaventc.org/

The Battered Women's Foundation: http://www.bwf1.com/

I understand that you are not being abused physically and are not in immediate physical danger. However, I think these are your best options for finding attorneys who are very tough and will know the laws very well about protecting ex-wives and children.

Good luck.

Peace,
M.

Wow CS that sounds complicated and stressful. First thing I might do is run a credit check on myself and see what he has done with your identity-open accounts, loans etc...Then I'd probably get an attorney ASAP and let them persue him legally. Maybe even get him to surrender parental rights. Good luck.

I would get a P O Box asap! I believe the cost is $20 a year. I think you are entitled to one free credit report per year from your bank. Freecreditreport.com will send you alerts when any account is opened in your name but they charge a monthly fee. Good luck to you!

I am one who never recommends the litigation route - but I think I would make an exception in this case.

As someone else noted - you may want to talk to a DA. I was on a jury where the defendant was charged (and we found him guilty) of mail fraud due to sending forged documents through the mail (getting a credit card in someone else's name). There may be some of this involved in your case which give you some relief.

Sorry to hear about all these hassles- I hope things get better for you soon.

I'm sorry you are dealing with this. When a person wants out of a relationship, they need to step out completely and leave the other person alone.

To add to what Valerie said, it's a federal offense for him to get in to your mailbox. If you can prove he has done this, you will have an even stronger case against him.

How can he retain parental rights if he has legally given them up ? If he has not legally given them up... I would suggest you go to the Attorney Generals office and let them assist you in getting some support for your children. It should not cost you anything to do this. I would also put a protective order on him to keep him away from my house and work place ... and call the cops on him everytime he comes within the restricted area.

Call John Haugen at the Haugen Law Firm, P.C. His office number is ###-###-####, website is www.haugenlawfirm.com. Best wishes and God bless!

My mother is going through some of the same issues with the "hidding of money" with my dad and is currently seeking advice from an attorney. She has been referred to Becky Lucas and I hear that she is the BEST around. Her office I believe is off of University right across from University Park Village.

Good luck to you. You are in my prayers.

This sounds like a criminal matter and you should call the police. Stalking and fraud are criminal matters. Is the loss of visitation your idea? do you have reason to believe that it would be harmfull for your children to visit with him? If not, then he should be a part of their life and pay child support. If there is reason for him not to visit with his children then he shouldn't have them if something happens to you for those same reasons. If he signed away his rights to them to save himself child support payments --I would think that any court would see that as a parent that is unfit to take over the care of the children if something happened to you. Contact your local attorney general's office. They may be able to answer your questions and file a suit on your behalf. But, I would call the police and press charges on your ex if he is stalking you and using your information to open accounts in your name. Get a restraining order if you can. I would do it today, asap! So there is a record of what he is doing. Not trying to be melodramatic, but you could be in danger and your children also. Keep us informed. I wish you the best and will put you in my prayers!
