Re: Help my daughter

You will have to file an action seeking custody of your daughter. Essentially this is a procedure similar to a divorce, but without the marriage issues. You can't handle this by yourself. The first thing to do is get advice from a local attorney. He/she will explain the procedure and costs. There is no other way except to report the mother to the police or social services.
