I have been taking care of my younger cousins for 6 years and before that my grandma who passed away had them. I want to know if there is anyway I can get legal custody without my aunt if she isn't available.

If you've had the children over 6 months then you probably qualify to ask a court for custody.

You don't include a zip code so I can't tell where you live.

Call an attorney in your county and sit down with an attorney and discuss your case.

There are many fine attorneys that answer questions on this website. I would call one of the attorneys that answer free questions on this website. You can read their answers before you call them and determine if they are someone that you would like.

Good luck and God bless you!
