You can fight for custody, now that you are stable. You will have to ask the Judge to order that you have custody, and you will get custody if the Judge is convinced that it is better for her to be with you than with whoever has custody now.

Please give me a call. The telephone discussion will be free of charge, and I will let you know what I believe I can do to assist you further.
