I recently went this week thinking I was just going to court to lower my child support and get more visitation with my daughter who is a year and 4 months, My attorney brought me into a conference room, just me and him and told me that my daughter's mother is asking that I sign over rights to my daughter. Now I love my daughter more than life itself, but my attorney suggested that I do this because of the problems my daughter's mom has caused me in the past and the problems her and her family are going to cause me over the next 17 years. He told me that if this was any normal family I was dealing with that he would tell me not to do this. But my daughter's mother and her family are evil evil people, my attorney knows and I know down the line they are the type of people that would molest a child and blame it on someone else just to send that other person to jail in order for them never to see that child again and I know it sounds very messed up but where I live for some reason this family has a lot of pull in the legal system their attorney is one of the judges brother's in this county and they believe every word that comes out of their mouths. So i'm scared, I love my daughter so much I'm just scared that If i don't give up my rights of what they are going to do, and trust me somehow they are able to get away with these things. My daughter's mother's father actually has killed a man and gotten away with it. About 6 months back I was called over by my daughter's mother to help her out by bringing her some extra money, when i got there she opened the door her father grabbed me by the arms pulled me into the apartment put a gun to my head and choked me almost unconscious and I went to jail for trespassing. But back to the main thing about court, I told him to put it off for a week, But I love my daughter so much i don't think i could live with myself if I signed over right, so what do I do? i plan on calling a different attorney and seeing if there is anyway to talk to the judge privately but other than any advice would be great. Thanks
