Q: Anyway to fight for custody of a relative child in ohio?

Mother doesn't have full custody..sister has temp custody because CPS pulled kids due to drug use. Mother can have supervised visits. I have child 90% of time. Sister doesn't really want to raise child but I do. Child will be 6 months old i have been getting here since she was 3 weeks old. I have her 4 to 6 days a week now. Is there any lawyer or court that would grant this even if mother won't agree? Please advise
