Re: Child Custody/Family Law
You should consult an Ontario lawyer as the law does differ from Province to province, but in B.C. I would make application for a change in custody and for an Order to have the child examined by an independent Psychologist or Registered Clinical Counsellor, to determine what her true wishes are and what is in her best interest separate and apart from the wishes and beliefs ofboth competing homes. There would have to be a material change in circumstances that has occurred from the time th original custody Order was made.
