QUESTION: How do I get child custody if I wasn't married to the father? My boyfriend and I broke up. We have an 18month daughter. How can I get custody?
MY RESPONSE: The best way to seek and get custody, if you can afford it, would be to retain an experienced Family Law Attorney to represent you. If you can't afford an attorney, you will need to file a Paternity case under the Uniform Parentage Act and litigate against your former boyfriend. If he makes a good living, you may be able to obtain an attorney fee order to assist in paying your attorney's fees. You should at least consult an experienced Family Law Attorney to determine your options and their costs, and you shouldn't delay.
