Her ex says she broke the rules by moving away and giving their son to you. Pretty simple.
The sick thing is that it doesn't appear that he wants his son from you, he just wants to stop paying child support to her. But I could be wrong about that.
I don't know if you'll find a bilingual lawyer in Polk County, but you'll easily find a bilingual family law attorney in nearby Tampa, so that's where you should look.
