A minor cannot enter into any contract. That would include hiring a lawyer. They would either have to have the parents enter into the contract, or have the lawyer petition the court to act on the minor's behalf. That will be a hearing that the parents would have input into as well.

Teens still need parental consent, from 16 to 18. You must have both sets of parents accompany you, sigh the approval affidavit and you must bring your birth certificate. If either party is under the age of 16, a waver must be issued from Juvenile Court. Your friend, along with the boyfriend and his parents needs to see a lawyer.

In Texas can you move out at the age of 15 with a parent's consent?
The age of majority is 18. That's when you're considered a legal adult and you can make all your own decisions. In some cases a minor can be legally emancipated. You would want to contact a family lawyer in your local area to ask about this. Otherwise you can't leave home without parental permission until you are 18-years-old. In Texas, however, there may be a loophole for 17-year-olds. Police in Texas will apparently not return you to your parents at 17 in most situations.

In Illinois can a mother leave the state with the child without the fathers consent?
Provided it is just for a trio or vacation, and not a permanent move, then possibly yes. In other circumstances no. It depends a lot on marital status, legal custody, and any existing court orders. Consulting a lawyer would be a great idea to find out the legalities for your specific situation.

The voluntary relinquishment of parental rights can be done Pro Se, although it is advisable to obtain advice from qualified legal counsel. Contacting the clerk or administrator of the state family or circuit court in the city or county of residence can provide specific information. FYI, in the state of Illinois voluntary relinquishment of parental rights does not necessarily relieve the petitioning parent of financial obligations, unless the act is being taken to allow the child/children to be eligible for adoption.
What do you do if parental rights taken away unfairly?
Consult a lawyer (attorney).
