To take him from me bc of our own personal issues (every time he comes around we fight) Do I have a leg to stand on? What can I do to get custody of my son since we are not married? Will I have to give him joint custody? Also how would child support go?He’s also very mean and I believe... View More

Custody of a child born out of wedlock is vested with the mother. That means just because he is on the birth certificate doesn’t mean he has any rights. You currently have fully custody. Until he takes you to court he doesn’t have rights. Good luck!
Father. Can my grandmother still get child support for my daughter in AL
answered on Oct 24, 2020
The father will have to agree to let your grandmother adopt your daughter, it’s not just your decision. And if he doesn’t agree then he gets her since you don’t want her and you’ll have to pay him child support. Think long and hard about what you’re doing. Good luck..
Timestamp on video is different from what police says when crime was committed. Reports show Feb 2nd 2016 a control buy was made. Video shows it was 9/26/2009.

No. If they have the confidential informant there to testify to the actual date it happened and also the police officers, then it will not matter what the time stamp on the video says.

If you are still married you can go get them and there is nothing she can do about it. You both have equal custody. But if you do, she will probably go file something immediately to give her temporary custody. Then you will have to petition the court for interim visitation prior to the final... View More

Yes you do need a lawyer, and quickly. Call an attorney that specializes in probate or estate planning to help you. I don’t know what county you are in but there should be plenty to help.
custody of their daughter(my niece). I`m not sure what to do when she is not listening or getting in trouble. What should i do?

DHR offers parenting classes to help you learn how to discipline a child correctly So she will learn from it or pay attention. Or you can ask relatives or friends that have children to give you some pointers on how they discipline their children. It’s very nice of you to take the child. Good luck!

He can go to jail for Rape 2nd degree. You are too young to give consent in Alabama therefore he would be having sex with a child which is against the law in Alabama. And if you had a baby, then that would be living, breathing proof that he committed the crime. Don’t do it, he will have to... View More

Good grief! You need to hire a lawyer immediately! If you can’t afford one go to your nearest legal aide office! And good luck!

He is saying the bill of sale means nothing . I paid 1300 cash for truck 500 debt to creditors for title now he saying I owed him 2000 more and he going to go get truck
answered on Oct 18, 2020
The bill of sale does mean something. If you paid him 1800 and have a bill of sale and he refuses to give you the truck you can have him arrested for theft by deception 1st degree, in addition to suing him civilly. Good luck!

You can go to legal aid to try and obtain a lawyer but it’s mostly for persons who have been abused that qualify. You need to get to an attorney immediately. Some will take payments or draw the money out of savings. But get to an attorney as quickly as possible! Good luck!

Because she is a minor. Anytime a minor is listed on court documents it’s “by and through” the parent of the minor. The age of majority in Alabama is 19, so she has to have her mothers name on the documents.
I have two kids, one will turn 19 in August of 2021. My ex- husband pays one amount for both, how is child support determined once the oldest child turned 19? Am I responsible, if the my ex-husband doesn’t request the payments to stop for the oldest child turns 19?
answered on Oct 10, 2020
He will have to file a modification to change the child support for one child and stop it for the other. It should be an easy process that you both can sign and agree upon.
Her parents have kicked her out and told her she cant get the child because technically they have custody.
answered on Oct 9, 2020
No. It’s not theirs, it’s their mothers. It was for them, and not to them.

All courthouses have access to the state filing system known as Alacourt. They are free to look information on. You can use this system to find the lawsuit in Alabama.

If you have not been to court you have full custody because you are married to someone else. Until a court of law adjudicates him, he has no rights. Go get you son.

No you may not. What you can do is file a suit against your neighbor for a nuisance. But if the landlord allows pets then there is probably nothing you can do about it, except get a money damage and to do that you have to prove damages, like lost wages, emotional distress and having to be...

When the mother of the child died he lost all touch with reality and the aunt of the child took custody he has since came back to reality and wants nothing more than to have his child back how can he get the child back from the aunt
answered on Oct 6, 2020
How long has it been? How long has she had custody? You may not be able to get the child back. You just can’t walk in and out of a child’s life like that. They need stability. But you need a lawyer. Go talk to a family law attorney as soon as possible.
And she further states if one of her 4 children is deceased at the time of her death\house being sold...that deceased child's portion goes elsewhere. mother's will is probated, (around January) the house sells on July 8…..judge grants permission by order dated July 30 for house to be... View More

The deceased’s share will be given to his estate and then whatever his Will states as far as distribution, then that will dictate.
