You need a lawyer here in Alabama and to file a petition for custody. You would have to show that you are able and willing to take care of your child and that there is nothing, i.e., drug usage, prior convictions or instability in housing or employment, to prevent you from having custody of your child. You would have to file a petition to change that custody.
