Georgia Family Legal Questions

Your first step would be to file a Motion for Contempt against your ex for violating the Court Order. At the hearing on this, the Judge will (or should if asked) require her to produce the children's  social security numbers. A lawyer can assist you with getting that Motion filed, and other documents that should be filed, as well, in order to show the Court that you are asking her to produce her tax records for a certain number of years, social security cards, etc.  Have you made contact with the Social Security Administration with a copy of your divorce paperwork to see if they will make this information available to you?   Hope this helps.  ...

A family attorney will help greatly in this matter.... Read More

It is not clear from your post exactly what you're asking. It is common for a lawyer to suggest filing a counterclaim in a custody action. That way, when you go to court, both parties can ask for complete relief, that is, they can both ask for custody or child support or whatever other issues there are. As for the specific facts of your case, I can't offer any further advice since I don't know all the facts. You should make sure your lawyer knows all the facts you've written here, and that the judge is made aware of them as well. All facts and circumstances will be taken into consideration in making a decision on custody and visitation.... Read More

First [presuming you were not married to Mom] is to legitimate you son which will set up both visitation and support parameters.  To get hit with abandonment, you'd have to not provide any kind of financial support for a period exceeding thirty days.  Pay her with a check or money order.  If you pay with cash, have her sign a receipt....
