Q: My child's father came to get our child and has not returned her in almost 2 months.
I'm unable to communicate with her father and have to go through his fiance and she barely picks up the phone. I haven't talked with my child in weeks because they never pick up the phone. I contact via Facebook messenger and barely get a message back. I've asked over and over again when can I pick up my child, but I never get an answer. I want my child back please help me.
A:
You need to get in touch with an experienced family law attorney. First and foremost, the main question that I have is whether there is a custody order already in place. If there is, that would outline all visitation matters, in which case there is a good chance that you can file a complaint against him since he would be in contempt of that order.
The main thing is getting with a lawyer sooner, rather than later. Most attorneys on here, myself included, offer free consultations to see how we can help out.
