Legal Question in Family Law in Arizona

The parents have primary rights of custody and all other parental rights. It is possible a child could be placed with extended family for various reasons. However, you would need to find out why the child is living with the mother's mother. You may have to file a petition for custody to find out whether the grandma has legitimate custodianship/guardianship.

Best of luck! Let me know if there is anything else I can do for you.

YES. The only reason you could not pursue custody is if your rights have been legally terminated.

We can certainly help you consider and then pursue your options.
