A: David’s Answer: If the father is dictating the access anyway, then it seems to me like you have nothing to lose by going back to court. The worst you come away with is a set access schedule that the father will need to abide by. For a full assessment, schedule a consult with an Orange/Westchester Child Custody attorney. – David Bliven, Westchester Child Custody attorney (www.blivenlaw.net)
