I have been married for five years and the relationship is non recoverable a laundry list of reasons. Ihave 1.5 month old son. What are my chances of securing a 50/50 custodyarrangement if I file. I live in California. The baby is bottled feedand I have taken numerous parenting and first aid courses withcertification. I also have adjusted my work schedule to be home 3 daysa week. During the three days I am home I am the primary care giver tothe child for changing feeding and bathing and so on. I also take an active rolein the evening when home from work. My wife is on maternity right nowbut worked up until the delivery. She plans on going back to work inJanuary after her approved maternity leave. If I file i would like to be awarded shared joint custody 50/50 or something close. I know my wife will fight me on this because she can be vindictive and our son is her only leverage point. What other things should I be doing to helpmy case before I file? When will be the right time to file? Should I even bother to file in the next 6-8months or is this a battle I won't be able to win? I don't want to lose my son.
