I am from South Africa and my ex-partner, who has moved to the US with our son, has broken off our relationship. I am concerned about my ability to visit and take our son abroad in the future. What legal steps should I take to ensure I can maintain contact with my son, and what are the implications for child support and visitation rights?

What type of lawyer do I need if my friend owes me money, filed a restraining order against me, and denied the loan when I tried to collect? We did not sign anything, but I have her replying to a text agreeing to pay. Also, how can I get records of a police report on her name that will help me with my defense?

I see special stickers for court exhibits on an Alaska court website: yellow for plaintiffs and blue for defendants. Can I get these for free from the local court, office supply store, or by calling the Helpline? Also, how should I number my exhibits if they exceed the number of letters in the alphabet?

I need a form to request a continuance for a legal proceeding in California. I need to submit this form to the judge to consider my request for time to obtain a replacement lawyer, as my lawyer has withdrawn from the case. Do you have a general format form that I may file with the court? I will pay via credit card, if you have such a downloadable form. Thank you.
