Re: fathers right to custody
Based on the information provided to me, your son needs to establich paternity as having his name on the birth certificate is not sufficient.
He should see an attorney as soon as possible.
Re: fathers right to custody
Your son needs to immediately find a lawyer in his area who will take the matter into the court. There, custody will be determined as well as paternity. It is not something he should try and do himself.
