[CA] How do I get access to my elderly father’s medical records?

My father is elderly. I need to start getting all his medical information to help with his care. I’m thinking I need a HIPAA form that I can just write the doctor’s name into. But is it legal to write in the doctor’s name on a signed form? Is there a different way I should be handling this?

How can I go about getting consistent visitation rights to see my son?

There was a miscommunication with the co-parent that I share my son with. The co-parent and I had an agreement via text that I would pick up my son from daycare and keep him until the following Tuesday. On Sunday we were out and about. The co-parent FaceTimed me, but I would only call. She then started acting irate because she said she did not know where her son was. We exchanged at the police station. I have not seen my son until a year later.

[IL] How do I and the other parent of my child resolve a disagreement about child support payments?

Both parents agree on a parenting schedule, but one parent doesn't agree on the financial responsibility part. Parent 1 is with the child every day while Parent 2 works. Parent 2 has the child from 4am–8am while Parent 1 works. Parent 1 makes $25k a year and Parent 2 makes over $80k a year, and both parties can't agree on who gets financial support for the child.

[VA] How do I reduce court-ordered child support obligations?

So right now it’s court ordered that I pay child support, but me and my wife aren’t divorced yet and are working on it. I’m filling out a parenting plan. If it says on the parenting plan that there shall be no child support payments due to either party—because that’s what we have agreed on—would that take away the child support payments I’m currently paying?

I am looking for a sample/template parenting plan that focuses on reunification. At the direction of my daughter's therapist, I am seeking to amend our parenting plan to include coparenting therapy, parenting classes, and reunification therapy. Do you have a template for this?
