Legal costs for custody are varied. There are many variables to consider. Here in Ontario Canada, to start a custody case with a lawyer, you would be expected to pay $5000 as retainer to your lawyer. That is not to say that is all it will cost, depending on how long the case takes to reach an agreement, or if it goes to trial. That initial $5000 could be doubled for total costs.

Is there a difference in a parent who has custody of the children but not married vs the parent that does not have custody and is getting married and is fighting for custody of the children?

Being married or unmarried is not much of a determining factor when it comes to custody nowadays. In order to have custody changed you would need to prove that either your household and parenting abilities are substantially better than the other parent, or that their situation is detrimental to the children. Having a spouse does not necessarily mean that you are better able to care for the children, especially if the other parent has had custody for a significant length of time without the children having any problems in a single parent household.


Can a parent that is behind in child support get joint custody of a child whos mother already has full legal custody?

Certainly some evidence of responsibility (ie paying child support, job, time spent with the child) would help your case. Joint custody, however, is not just for the purpose of reducing child support; infact the child support you pay is nowhere near what it costs to raise a child. Consider the ramifications of your sharing custody--what is in the best interests of the child??
