Re: Family Law

I would be glad to visit with you concerning this matter, but you have not provided enough facts to allow an assessment. Are you the stepmother or stepfather? What is the status of the other biological parent? Are there existing court orders affecting this child? Contact me directly, and I can sort out the options available to you.
