    what are my rights in a court room?? can my ex's attorney be disrespectful to me in court?? will the judgeicon take my ex's side since she has a attorney and I don't?? I have alot of evidence that proofs my ex is not a fit parent and that she is very unstable and that is not good for my children..she has moved in with her boyfriend since she just gave birth to her third child..her and her boyfriend are interfering with my custody and visitations...how can I defend my self in court??? what are my chances of getting phisycal custody since we already have share custody...

    Being disrespectful to an unrepresented party is never good practice, however, it very common. The judges sometimes give more leniance towards unrepresented parties in a divorce, however, it is never a good idea to continue unrepresented against an attorney when fighting for your children.

    Your evidence may be great, however, it may not be able to be entered into evidence if you do not know the rules of evidence. I would consult and possibly retain and attorney.

    As for if you will get a majority of the parentingicon time, it all depends on the facts, the judgeicon and the parenting time you are currently sharing.

    That is beyond the scope of this forum. You should come in for a short strategy session.
