Legal Question in Family Law in New Jersey

Grandparents & Custody

My Son-in-law has custody of my grandson and has asked my husband & I if we would take care of my GS with his mother's permission. What type of documents should we have drawn up so that we can legally take care of him?

Re: Grandparents & Custody

I would need more information about what you are doing here. If you are just watching the child, you don't need anything. If you will have custody of the child, you should really see an attorney.

My initial consultations are always free, so call me at 732/247/3340 to discuss your case.

At the very least you need a power of attorney signed by both parents. If custody is going to be long term a custody complaint should be filed in the family part of the Superior Court of New Jersey in your county courthouse.

Call me if you like.
