How does a mother get custody of her 14 year old if the father has custody?

By petitioning the court with jurisdiction for a modification in the custody order, wait for the court hearing and then provide compelling evidence and documentation why it would be in the best interests of the child for the mother to have custody. I would strongly recommend you obtain the services of an attorney experienced in family law to assist you.


How would a man go about getting either full or at least half custody of his child in CA?

Fortunately California is more advanced than other states when it comes to equal rights between Mothers and Fathers.Any good Fathers with a good relationship with their children should have a very good opportunity to a shared custodial arrangement.To obtain full custody, you generally have to prove that the Mother is unfit, for example, a serious alcohol or drug abuse problem, mental instability, physical abuse etc.I have been litigating cases on behalf of Dads for thirty years. The problem with most Fathers being unable to obtain custodial rights, is a lack of preparation on their part. You have to know how to act, what to say and what to do in an evaluator's office and in court if you want a fair chance at success.For some reason Mothers tend to study, prepare and ask questions much more frequently than Fathers, thus the reason they are more successful.If you would like more information about knowledge and preparation to achieve success with custody, go to http://www.fatherswincustody.com. You will learn the 10 biggest mistakes people make in custody and how Fathers can succeed.I hope my answer is of assistance to you.

A single father, what does that mean? Are you divorced, ever married to the mother of your child, or is the child adopted by you, or is the mother dead or out of the picture? If your question is "How does a Father obtain residential custody after a divorce or in a paternity case", then I can answer this question. Let me know what your grounds for custody are. What is it about the mother or other parent that makes it harmful for the child to remain in their care?


Does your father have the right to take custody of you if you want to live with him?

No. He cannot obtain legal custody without a modification of the custody order by the court. He would need to petition for a change in custody. The court would review the petition and render its decision. It would be easier if your mother consents to the petition.


How do you I file for sole custody of your son when you are not married to his father?

Generally, as an unmarried mother you already have sole custody of your child under the law in every state. The father must establish his paternity in court in order to obtain shared custody and visitation rights. Until he does, you have sole legal custody.
