Re: Regianing custody
Hello. First of all you
should hire a lawyer to
represent you, and then a
change of custody petition
should be filed. When the
court looks at this type of
petition, it will look toward
what is in the best interest
of the minor child(ren). It
will be necessary for the
court, in most instances, to
appoint a lawyer for the
child(ren), usually called
guardian ad litem. You will
be required to show why your
home and care is in the best
interest of the children.
Good luck!
