There are few events in life that strain a person's nerves more than fighting on your child's behalf for the God given right just to parent them. If you were there when your children were born and felt the bond and connection running through you, you embraced that bond through their infancy and now find those feelings, you feel to be a divine trust, challenged by the other parent. You must know how important it is to get this right.

The largest problem you face in a high conflict child custody fight is that your opponent probably knows you better than anyone else. At one time you confided your deepest hopes, dreams and fears in this person and now that trust is not only broken, that insight is being used against you in the most painful and hurtful way possible. It is being used to keep you away from your child.

The reason I mention the obvious is that the pure lack of trust you now feel will make you totally cautious when it comes time to filing your court documents. You may be tempted to cut down on what you are requesting and reluctant to provide proof to prove your position. Who would fault you after the total and utter violation of your trust that you have just experienced with this person.
In fact, your hope is that you can catch them off balance and show them to everyone for the very horrible person they are. You hope to make them squirm and question which of the things you know about them that you will spring on them in court. You have a grandiose vision of making it look like some TV episode. Well, get hold of yourself. This isn't TV or a novel.

Two important facts to keep in mind are:

1. Time is most important to the judge. They are going to see many cases not just yours.

2. The judge will review the case before they come to court and therefore be versed on what you are asking for and why.

If you thought about surprising them with something the two reasons above should detour you.

Now that I've shown you what you cannot do, let me tell you the 4 real tips for submitting you can do.

1. Make advantage of the fact that the judge will view your filing before they hear the case. Put in the specific items you need to judge to hear.

2. Include any proof you have to support your filing. (don't fret that they won't be surprised)

3. Deliver your motion in plenty of time for the other parent to respond. This is critical for lots of reasons including keeping your legal motion valid.

4. When you get back the response to your court papers be prepared to reply once again with any follow-up information that the judge should to know.

This is your final chance to submit what you want the judge to find out and it will be much too late for another response.
