Legal Question in Family Law in Georgia

Re: Taking over custody

You would need to ask the court to modify the custody decree based on the new circumstances. You would file a motion to modify. I would strongly suggest hiring local counsel to assist you. It can be tricky.

If you would like to discuss any issues further, please feel free to contact my office. My contact information is below. Thank you.

Re: Taking over custody

A change of custody is far too important to risk messing up via do it yourself. I strongly would suggest that you obtain counsel and do it correctly.
