Legal Question in Family Law in Iowa

My children's mother went to jail a few days ago for 5 years- she is saying that she gave guardianship of the kids to her boyfriend without my knowledge. We are in Iowa, can she sign the kids over to her boyfriend and if so what do I need to do to get custody. There is no custody order on file but the children have been living with her and her boyfriend.

I'm surprised that with kids you never had a custody and support order. The time to file is now, and you need an attorney.
