Re: Biological parent (father)
In order for an agreement on custody to be valid, binding, and enforcable, it must be approved by the Court and included in an Order. If you have an agreement, you should consult an experienced family law attorney to have the agreement properly drafted and then an action filed to have the Court approve it.
Attempting to find a "form" to then do it yourself will most likely result in problems down the road, which can range form small to huge. You can read more on this subject in an article I wrote by pasting the following address into your web browser: http://www.scfamilylaw.com/attorneyclient-relationship-do-you-need-an-attorney-for-your-family-court-case.html
These are complex issues, and it is important that they be handled correctly. Therefore, it is important that you consult an experienced family law attorney to find out what options are available to you based on the facts of your particular case.
