Legal Question in Family Law in New Jersey

What notification do you leave if someone has temporary custody to notify author

My son has a 19 year old girlfriend with a child. Her mother put her out of the house and refused to give her daughter to her. Defacs came in and order the child stay with her grandmother after they heard the grandmother's side only, never actually hearing the side of the of the custodial mother. The grandmother then went to the court and got an emergency hearing retaining temporary custody stating the girl abandoned her child and she had no way to get in touch with her(which was not true because Defacs knew of her location and they also documented it in a police report). I am in the state of Georgia she stays with my mother in NJ.Temporary custody has been ordered until the girl has a permanent place of residence.New Jersey is very high. She wants to come and stay with me, finish her education and get a stable place of residence and career. What forms do we need to submit prior to doing all this to let Defacs,the court, and for purposes of records to show she is not abandoning her child,this is temporary and once she gets stable she will return for her child? Also,would the move present a problem in the future with her regaining custody?Lastly, what else can I do to help and ensure her retaining custody in Georgia?

You need to hire an attorney for your son's girlfriend. The legal fees for custody matter are ususally substantial. My retainer would be $8,000.00.
