Michigan law gives you equal standing in Livingston County Family Court. But rights you don't enforce become rights you no longer have. Every temporary order. Every missed exchange. Every day without counsel. The clock is running. Haque Legal stops it.
Livingston County fathers who don't enforce their rights early find those rights fading away. Temporary orders entered in Howell become the baseline the court preserves. Parenting time violations go undocumented. Every day of inaction is a day the other side builds a structure that works against you.
