Re: Emergency Custody

You find it at your lawyer's office, after discussing the facts. There is no "paperwork" you pick up at Office Depot.

Re: Emergency Custody

If you actually care about the issue, spend the money to get a lawyer. Custody is not a do-it-yourself project (you can file, but if you are having to ask "where to get forms" ou are woefully unprepared and have little chance of success). Custody is far more than forms. It involves court hearings, ADR, discovery, witnesses, court rules and the like, and few non-lawyers are equipped to prevail in such cases.
