She thinks I’m a bad influence because she made assumptions about me. I haven’t hung out with her daughter in over a year or even gone to their house in two. She thinks that her dad will let me hang out with her but her dad and step mom hate me to.
How is this an immigration question? It seems like a matter that involves child custody. You may have rights, but may lose them if this is your child.
I strongly recommend an appointment with a competent California domestic relations attorney that handles child custody issues. Good luck!
My case is all over the place. The son I thought was mine isn't but I've been trying to get full custody of him because his mom is in prison ive had him since a baby she's never really been in his life and his biological father signed his rights over while incarcerated now his out... Read more »

THE FIRST QUESTION IS WHETHER YOU CAN AFFORD A FAMILY LAW ATTORNEY.
IF SO GOOGLE FAMILY LAW ATTORNEY IN YOUR AREA AND MAKE AN APPOINTMENT.
THE LAWYER MAY BE DOING THINGS RIGHTS BUT YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND.
How do I win termination I was never served with this guardianship they pushed back the evidentiary hearing three months which makes one year and she can adopt my kids
This is a very serious and legally complicated issue. This Q&A forum is not the proper avenue for you to get this type of legal advice. You need to consult with an attorney directly.
My child’s father is on her birth certificate, I applied and received child support, but he never been in her life. The last time he saw her is when she was 5 months old, she is 12 now. The problem is that he refusing to sign any documents requiring his signature, I need to get her passport and... Read more »
Your file a petition for parentage and ask for custody orders, or you can file a separate stand-alone petition for custody. I'm assuming 1) you were not married to the father; and 2) there are no existing custody orders in place. If there are custody orders in place, then you need to amend... Read more »
Should I just call in? I just found it.
There are several factors not provided in your question to give a comprehensive and cogent answer. First, not knowing your age, there is a human element than cannot be overlooked. If you choose to make a call, this case will progress as civil suit, in family law court. Whether law enforcement is... Read more »
Unsanitary living situation
Child neglected and used as pawns

Not a criminal issue.
We are not married and never have been. For the most part the father has been absent during the pregnancy and begged for an abortion/ adoption. The father will not be on the birth certificate. I plan to move to Fort Bragg in two weeks where I will have family support, less bills and will overall... Read more »
If there are no custody orders in place (i.e. signed by a judge and filed with the court) and no petition for custody or visitation have been filed, you are free to move wherever and whenever you want.
By that, I mean by Federal law, any possible state law, and California law.
Did the male report the "rape" immediately?
If not, the law favors the child being cared for more than it cares about the details of the act of procreation.
Iv done everything asked per court order have not tested dirty but other parent is requesting hair test and only to prolong me seeing my daughter
more info needed.
you should go over this with your attorney.
i assume there was some kind of evidentiary hearing and based on that the judge made the hair analysis order?
a judge would normally have that power.........whether it is correct or appealable is another... Read more »

Is it possible to... Read more »
Under certain limited circumstances you may be able to file a motion to change venue. If there are minor children involved and they have moved to No. Cal. and have lived there for more than 3 consecutive months, it may make sense to move the venue to a court closer to where the minor children...

It isnt that its a large amount of money that I am not willing to pay. I have no problem supporting my child whenever I can - my issue is that I havent seen him or... Read more »
MORE INFO NEEDED.
I THINK YOU SHOULD MAKE A CONSULTATION APPT WITH A LOCAL FAMILY LAW ATTORNEY AND HAVE A SUMMARY TYPED UP OF ALL THE FACTS....ASAP
MANY LAWYERS WILL NOT CHARGE FOR A CONSULTATION.
I AM SORRY FOR YOUR CHALLENGES.........HAVE YOU VISITED OR TRIED TO VISIT? HOW OFTEN?
First, this question does not have anything to do with Immigration law or Child custody. It is a personal injury question. Next, contingent fee agreements of this type are not set by law. The amount you are charged will depend on a number of factors which could include, the probability of... Read more »
My fiancé and I had twins and we have been together for 8 years and we have another child also I was wondering why child support is being taken out of my check since I’m at home with them providing shelter, clothing ,food and ect.. they’re garnishing 1600 a month from my checks and here’s...

Not enough information. Why is what? A lot more information is needed to be able to answer your question.
My ex filed the divorce petition in 2016. I didn't file a response because we were in agreement on most things. (One child, no property to split). The case went into default status and he has failed to continue the process (hasn't filed the remaining paperwork to finish and get judgment).... Read more »
You can file a motion to set aside the default. If granted, you would then file your response to the petition and move your case forward as usual. The other option is to enter into a settlement agreement with the other party and file that as a stipulated judgment.
Sorry. I guess this is the e wrong place for a question like this.
These are the kinds of questions and the kind of advice you should seek directly from an attorney rather than using this type of forum to get your answers. You would be best served by retaining legal counsel to handle your divorce case for you and/or on your behalf. You’ll get better and more... Read more »

ONLY IF YOU LET HIM.
HOWEVER, IT IS MORE DIFFICULT TO PRESENT YOUR CASE IF YOU DON'T HAVE A GOOD FAMILY LAW ATTORNEY.
ORGANIZE ALL THE FACTS SO THAT A LAWYER WILL SEE YOU ARE ORGANIZED AND MAY NOT BE AS TIME INTENSIVE A CLIENT AND EITHER HANDLE PRO BONO OR AT REDUCED RATE...........
My husband and I are still married, live together in Southern California, and never had any custody hearings. He doesn’t want our daughter to go. His reasoning is because of COVID-19 but we just went to visited his parents in Northern California. So I don’t see the difference.
No. If you are parents married with no court orders limiting where when and who the child can be with, either parent can travel freely subject to not putting the child’s health safety and welfare in jeopardy. In this case that would following protocols for travel. Covid-19 has been addressed by... Read more »
