Re: not clear of rights
If there are no orders granting her custody of any type, then you have as much right to the child as she does. However, simply coming to get the child might cause other problems, and I would not suggest that you do so without discussing your situation with an attorney.
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.
