Orrville, OH asked in Family Law and Child Custody for Indiana

Q: My wife recently left when i was at work and took our 1 year old son. She wont let me see him at all. What can i do?

Nothing has been filed with the courts. No divorce paperwork has been filed. We weren't talking about getting a divorce before this. As of right now neither one of us have custody over my son as i understand it, since we were married when my son was born. Is there anything i can file to gain temporary custody until we go to court?

A: Based on your question I would need more information to give you the proper legal advise. Was this as a result of a paternity action or a divorce? What type of custody do you have of the child?
