Legal Question in Family Law in Illinois

Re: Family Law

There are several issues here. First, if it is no longer in the child's best interest for the mother to have custody of the child, the husband can fight for that. From what you described that should be relatively simple. Second, it is extremely unlikely that a court awarded the custody of the child to the child's grandmother. The father still has rights regarding that decision (normally). Third, the non custodial spouse has to pay support until the court rules otherwise. The support is not for the benefit of the custodial parent, but for the child. And regardless of how the mother is acting, the child still needs financial and emotional support. If you are interested in stepping up and getting this child in a better situation, contact me.
