The Mergl and Wenger, Attorneys at Law FaceBook Page, provides more information about this law firm.
Attorney Dave Wenger represents clients who have been served a Protection from Abuse Order (PFA). Individuals who violate the terms of a PFA face penalties, including fines and prison. A PFA violation impacts a person’s chances in other ongoing cases. Legal advice from an experienced lawyer is just about the only thing that can help a person served with an emergency PFA.
The hearing at the family court is vitally important because if a permanent PFA is granted against an individual, then such an individual may not see the children and may have to move out of the family home.
Mergl and Wenger recommends that in matters relating to a PFA hearing, people place their faith in the judicial system and work with a qualified attorney. Attorney Wenger has represented clients who had to defend against PFAs applied purely to harass and gain the judge’s sympathies in a legal custody matter. He knows how to probe for weaknesses in any story.
Dave Wenger of Mergl and Wenger said, “You and your child’s other parent have the right to decide a child custody agreement yourselves. However, if you are divorcing or unmarried, you should go to court to formalize the arrangement. If you do not formalize your agreement in a court order, you could face a custody battle in the future.
You may file a complaint requesting a certain amount of legal and physical custody of your child. If this is part of a divorce, it will be addressed in your initial divorce complaint. If this dispute is not part of a divorce, then it is considered an independent action.
You must contact a custody lawyer immediately if you receive unexpected paperwork about child custody or divorce. When a child custody dispute goes to court, the judge may require you and the other parent to go through mediation. This is an out-of-court process during which a mediator guides the conversation, enabling you and the other parent to make crucial decisions together. The mediator does not make any final decisions or have any ability to control the outcome.
If mediation is not required or fails, the decision is put to the court. You and your child’s other parent can present the court with the amount of custody you believe you should have and evidence that supports your claim. The judge will review all of the circumstances, consider a number of factors, and then hand down a decision.”
