How long has the child been in Illinois? If he has been there for at least 6 months, then you probably would have to pursue this there.
The situation has to be pretty bad with mom for you to get sole custody. More facts are needed to properly evaluate the case.
Can you prove her drug abuse? What type of drug abuse is involved? Does she have any criminal convictions. What about the guy she left with, or is living with?
If you opt to proceed without the assistance of counsel, be aware that you will not be entitled to a �do over� if things go badly.
The above information is provided without any consideration/payment having been received, and without full knowledge of all of the facts.
An internet inquiry is no substitution for an in-office consultation with an attorney.
If your situation falls within the Greater Tampa Bay area, I would be happy to schedule you for a no obligation half hour office consultation. The main office is in Dunedin, with a satellite location in Tampa.
