Hiring a lawyer can be very spendy and on average an attorney can cost $125-$200 per hour. However some attorney's prefer to start by having you pay a retainer of $1000 to $4000. I think its crazy that it cost soo much, but they do go through a lot of school so its understandable but its expensive. My lawyer has reassured me on several occasions that I shouldnt let these problems take over my life. That I have a good case and that I should live my life as normal as ever.
I think that living life normally with whatever god throws my way is important. I'm trying to not let all of this effect our schedule and so far it has not.
One of the concerns I had before talking with him was that my daughter's mother is the one pushing all of this legal crap and I wanted to know if grandparental rights was something the state of iowa did a lot of and I should worry about, and he reassured me that it doesn't happen hardly at all anymore. I guess they figure if dad's a deadbeat so are his parents and if he's not the dad can take the child to visit his parents. I liked that. It made me feel better to know that if keegan doesn't get the visitation they want that his parents then can't come and try and get time of their own.
