Re: Custody of Stepchild
Filing a police report will not really help all that much. What you need to do is to consult an attorney and file an action for custody a.s.a.p., if that is what the father wants to pursue.
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.
