• Is there anyway someone can help me put together a response to a RFO and parentage plan?

  Asked in San Diego, CA | June 16, 2026

  My child's father lives in Incline Village, NV Nov-May of every year, and then resides in San Diego May- October. Our son resides with me in San Diego primarily with current visitations on a court order the second weekend of every month. He is requesting more time, but only while he's in town, and requesting holidays and school breaks. My concern is that he hasn't been able to make his second weekend visits since Sept 2025. He has switched or canceled his parenting time, and I have allowed and have been accommodating to a certain degree with his schedule because I would like my son to have time. He won't agree with anything I suggest unless he suggests it. If I ask for a compromise or offer a separate solution, he takes me to court. He filed an ex parte in Feb because he wanted to take my son to Lake Tahoe, but the weather was terrible, and the roads were shut down. I have evidence of cancellations and a declaration I'd like to submit, but i don't know how.

• Where can I find an attorney or law firm who is plaintiff-sided to go against a large corporation?

  Asked in East Los Angeles, CA | February 12, 2026

  This matter arises from a car rental dispute that was escalated to law enforcement and resulted in a felony arrest and prosecution. Car rental company own billing/contract records reflect the rental was closed and the vehicle was returned on March 28, 2024, yet Plaintiff was arrested on April 5, 2024 while in possession of the same vehicle, creating an objective contradiction suggesting false or materially misleading information was provided to law enforcement.
