QUESTION: What child custody rights do I have? My ex-girlfriend broke up with me when my daughter was 2 years old because I was too sick to hold job. I eventually picked up a contract as a Web Developer and a new apartment. My ex & I verbally agreed to 50% custody. I have kept an email chain for years now as my daughter is 5 & a half. After completing my contract, I moved in with parents to show stability for daughter and their house is walking distance to her school. I have dedicated my life to supporting her (I'm not even dating). I get her about 70% of the time, mainly because her mother pushes her off on me constantly which I love. Now my ex wants to move 3 cities away with my daughter and feels she is the dominant parent, so she has the right! I don't know what to file for with courts and if I need to beat her to court? Currently I am a very poor Android App Developer and have no money for an attorney! What do I do?
MY RESPONSE: If you haven't filed a Paternity (Uniform Parentage Act) case, you should do so without delay, along with an Order to Show Cause seeking custody of your daughter and opposing her mother's move-away with your daughter, setting forth the details of your relationship with your daughter and your increasing and current timeshare, with back-up documents. Of course, you would best be represented by an experienced Family Law Attorney in such matters.
