Legal Question in Family Law in Texas

Custody of my niece

I have been raising my niece for 5 years. Her mom (my sister) abuses drugs and stays with abusive men. Each summer we get threats from my sister that she is going to kidnap my niece. What can I do to protect my niece from being taken back by her mom.

You really need to sit down with an attorney, because there is more information that I need in order to answer your question. Call my office, make an appointment. My office is in Round Rock, and the initial meeting will not cost you any money unless you decide to retain my services.
