Mothers grandmother got custody of daughter during the time I had no clue I was her dad. Do I have a chance at getting custody of her once paternity is established?

Why would you do anything? If he continues not to see them, you are setting yourself up for possible sole custody in the future.

Despite the law, the courts snd CPS do not sanction corporal punishment for any reason.
Keep a journal of when you have her and when the father has or sees her. Note any snd all occurrences in the journal as they happen so you’ll have an accurate record for the court.

You should hire a lawyer to defend you in the termination action. There are far too many possibilities and variables that are involved to cover here, but if you voluntarily terminate your rights, you will likely lose them forever.
Can not get any questions answered, was told the father was supposed to contact his lawyer & tell them about why he did not show up, but somehow my wife ended up with a warrant.
Hire a lawyer and have them contact the court to advise of the misunderstanding.
Research the best family lawyers online via their reviews, ratings and experience and then select two or three to call and discuss your case.
