Legal Question in Family Law in Missouri

My ex is pregnant and she says im the fatherof the baby. I dont think that she is fit to rase a baby. I want to get sole legal and sole physical custody of the child. She has been arrested for fighting. Her mother has felonies over drugs, burglery, and even more extended criminal history. Her uncle has posted half naked pictures of girls that look really young on his facebook. The uncle has also been in troube for selling drugs. My ex has also been talking about dropping out of highshool. Do i have a chance at winning full custody of my child?

There is a chance. You'll have to establish paternity and convince the Court that you can provide for the child.

Good luck
