Q: 2 years ago I lost custody of my child and can only see her alternate weekends.Where do I start when getting her back?
A: With remediation of whatever condition(s) that caused you to lose custody, then working with the other parent, and with the child. Once you get that all sorted out, an attorney is most helpful to present all of this evidence to the court . . . or even the new agreement between you and the other parent supporting your reunification with your child. the court is not so concerned as "getting the child back with you" as they are in doing what is in the best interest of the child.
