The father is in the picture and wants to keep a family unit so he puts up with it, he is mentally abused too. My sister has mental issues and refuses help. She is narcissistic and toxic. My niece has severe anxiety and sometimes she can’t breathe due to it.
I would think you would have a tough road in getting what you want. You are seeking guardianship and would have to allege that it is a detriment for the child to remain in the custody of mom. And from what you say that might well be. However, the father is in the picture and if he objected to... Read more »
Father hasn’t seen our child in 6 years, court ordered 6 month reconnection counseling but we have a review hearing at 3 months mark. What can I expect? Will things stay the same until 6 months are complete or will there be a modification of orders at review?
It's hard to say without knowing the intent of the court regarding the scheduled review hearing. The judge might just be wanting to see how the reconnection counseling is going and will probably expect some kind of report from the counselor. Based on that, if the judge sees progress he/she will... Read more »
CA, he was served a day before when the order went threw to take custody away on CA he was in the military. Judge made a bad decision. He pays support but the mom refuses any contact with him. His daughter cries because she misses her dad. Im not sure if we need two lawyers or we’re do we start?
Depending on how long the child has been living in Kentucky, Dad should consider hiring a lawyer in California to file a motion to transfer venue to Kentucky so he can seek modification of custody/visitation orders. He can then address the support. Once the case is transferred to Kentucky, he... Read more »
Now my father in law passed away then my son is still minor, the insurance ask us court appointed guardian to get my son’s claim. We went to court and they did not help for guardianship estate, we cannot afford to get a lawyer. We dont know what to do to get certificate from the court stating... Read more »
The insurance company is asking for letters of guardianship which can only be granted to a guardian by a probate court. Merely being the parent of a minor is insufficient authority to claim insurance money belonging to a minor.
A court cannot give legal advice, nor can a legal document... Read more »

You have parental rights. You have the right to custody and/or visitation. If you want those rights adjudicated; i.e. to get a court order, you will need to file a parentage action (aka paternity) and request child custody orders and support. As a co-habitant, you do not have the same rights as... Read more »
Establish parentage behind my back. My son who is four already has a legal father who signed a vdop that is filed with DVDs at the time of birth and he had an active case prior to this to establish 50/50 custody with me. Fast forward....my son's possible biological parent then staged a DV and got... Read more »
I would guess there is much to this story that has not been told. You are right, you do have conflicting orders, and technically yours is last in time. However, since you knew of the biological father he should have been noticed of your action and it should have been disclosed to the court that... Read more »

I am assuming you are in California and the baby will be born in California, for the purposes of answering this question. He cannot legally force you to send the child to Canada for visitation barring a court issuing such an order. I do not know about Canada, but I am pretty sure that California... Read more »
