The story is all too familiar. Many of us that have been involved with the NH Family Court System find that it is unfair, unjust and far from unbiased. It seems that our family court system is destroying our families instead of trying to help them. Why would that be?
Money seems to be a driving factor in the modern family court system. This is a multibillion dollar business. Judges and Marital Masters are employed by family’s misfortunes. Let’s not forget about the court staff that is also employed in this business. How about the GAL’s that make money from this system or the therapist that have to be involved in many of these cases. What about the people that the state employs with DHHS that have jobs collecting the millions of dollars in child support that is court ordered for which federal funds are diverted to the state to employ these people.
Did I mention the attorneys that litigate these cases too? Let’s not forget these people. At fees of $250 and up per hour, how many of these attorneys’s feel the need to keep the litigation to a minimum?
