Dual Citizenship and Birthright Repatriation

My question involves a child custody case from the State of: NJ.

Hello. I have two children, age 8 and 10, that were born in a European country. Me and my husband are married in that country where we lived prior to relocating for 10 years.

The husband and the kids have US citizens (Kids wee born with the European country’s citizenship and descend). We moved 1,5 years ago in the state of NJ. Things were deteriorating both at home and with the children so I decided to free myself from the economical dependence and since we have no friends and our children have made no ties in the new country, I decided to find a job to return the family to the EU country they call “Home”

We agreed that for the best interest of the children we would not interrupt their school year and we will decide at a later date if they would go back or not. However, I left in November, I have indication that the children will be kept against their will and against my will in the US. Without money and a job I could not afford a lawyer prior to my departure not I could risk losing the only source of income this job would give me.

Question: shall I fight for custody in their birth county only, go back to the US and fight alone in the US court? Do they take under consideration where this family was set up or all they care is to “keep their citizens in the US” and ignoring the specifics?
