what can I do to see my kids. They want to spend more time with me, but the courts are not listening to them or me. I need help!

A request to modify has to be written, filed, and served properly.  If you have had stable employment, stable residence, and have followed the current orders, and you can prove the concerns about Mother, I would think you have a sufficient case so long as it is brought to the court in a proper format.     If the court is not listening to you, it may be because you have not filed the proper paperwork or have not explained it well enough for the court to understand.  It is also possible that you have done everything correctly, but the court has reasons for disagreeing with you.   Since you have not been successful on your own, I encourage you to consult with a family law attorney.  Bring your past paperwork with you so the attorney can see what you tried to do before.  My office will provide an initial consult at no cost.  Marie Zawtocki, Zawtocki Law Offices, PLLC
