Without Court Orders, no 3rd party should be able to keep your child. The police should be able to assist. If the police are unwilling (because they consider it a "Court matter"), then we can file a Petition seeking a Court Order which ORDERS the police to get the child for you.

We can certainly help you consider and then pursue your options. This is obviously a very important matter, and you should not go in alone.

One of our attorneys can explain the issues and procedures better in person. As you can imagine, there is too much to cover via email. We offer free 1/2 hour consultations, in which we can discuss your matter in detail.

Please call us directly to discuss the specifics of your matter, or contact my assistant Alicia or my paralegal Jennifer to schedule your free 1/2 hour consultation.
