We did them, but it was a long time ago (12 years) so I don't know how things might have changed.

Anything in particular you wanted to know?

The courts will always look out for the best interest of the child or children and the result isn't taken lightly.
Best thing you can do is get equipped with a lawyer even if not in court they will be your legal go to and also the one to set the notions
