How does a father get custody of his children if he was never married to the mother an the kids are twins and 1 month old?
The father would need to petition the court in the jurisdiction where custody was determined for a modification in the custody order, then be prepared to present a compelling case why it would be in the best interests of the children for him to assume custody. It would be in your best interests to have expert legal representation when challenging a custody order.

You were given custody of your child in Wisconsin your case was never transfered to Michigan and in Michigan the father and you have joint custody what one is actually legal?

Your biological sons are with a non biological father you were never married and there was never any custody battle but he is refuseing to give you your children can he do that?
Most likely not. If the mother had sole legal and physical custody and had the "step father" adopt the children without your knowledge - the adoption would be voidable. If he is illegally holding the children against your or their will, that is considered kidnapping in many states. Get the state involved.
Father and mother never married children born in Florida father now lives in Georgia does he have to legitimize them in Georgia to have them come live with him?
If the children live with their mother in Florida and the father never established his paternity legally, a Georgia court would have no jurisdiction over the children. Their mother has sole legal custody. If the father wants to establish his "parental rights" he will need to establish his paternity where the children are domiciled. Once he has established that he is their father he can request joint custody or a visitation order and the mother can request a child support order if the children are to remain in her physical custody.If the parties want to make the change in custody by consent of the parties he should consult with an attorney to determine how that can be accomplished.If the children live with their mother in Florida and the father never established his paternity legally, a Georgia court would have no jurisdiction over the children.
