Well you see, my daughter is still technically under her adopted mothers custody, problem is her adopted parents are kinda, dead. So I need to transfer custody of her over to me, problem is her adopted parents didn't name me as a guardian and named someone else as her guardian but she is currently living with me and the guardian, someone I barely know, is trying to bury me in legal paperwork.
 
A custody battle. Well to start with the terms of the adoption is important. Also how the adoptive mother arranged a guardian is critical here. As for paper work there are methods to eliminating to much paper work. Judges or commissioners hate to much paper work and that makes bury someone in paper work a double edged sword.

So when the child was adopted did the mother do it on her own or were you involved with the adoption process?

Did the adoptive parents leave the child to someone in a living will?

There wasn't a actual adoption process, it was more along the lines I gave her to them but never really signed over my rights as her father, though those records are on Anaxes. They left a will detailing that my daughter would be given to a woman by the name of Megan Feinstein, a woman who I've never even met.
 
I guess [member="Sarge Potteiger"] is offering his hammer to the knees of anyone disagree with you claim to ease your daughter.


[member="Noah Corek"] you never signed over your right to be the father and there was not a legal adoption process? Well then this is going to be easier then I thought. What planet is the child on right now?
 
Good and that is where she should stay. The thing is the adoption does not sound legal in any right. You also never signed your rights as a father away. This person has no legal right to try to take custody away from a loving father. There is a few steps we do have to do so when the curt will take a closer look at this case. In all paternity cases they require all parents or guardians to take parental corses. During this process the court will assign a guardian at litem. This person is a neutral observer who looks at the living conditions of your home and this other woman who is claiming to have the right to rase the child. As long as you have a stable home, providing for the child, and have no felonies Magan Feinstein is going to have a up hill battle she had no hope to win in the first place.

I've given my daughter every amenities she needs, from tutors for school to the best self defense trainers I could find, as well as making sure to have bodyguards follow her, descreetly of course.

I'm not so sure this will be as easy as you say. Some might say the girl was abandoned, and her gaurdians well gave over rights to this woman, it could be messy. The will is a legal document, and that may be enough. Then again my question is... how did you get possession of the child if her gardians had made arrangements for her to be transfered to this woman? Also, why would they do such a thing? Could they have had reason?
 
If they had filled for adoption the debate if the girl was abandoned would be a sold defense. Yet there was no adoption and the government was not notified. That places the couple that raised the child in uncomfortable legal position and whoever was supposed to inherit the child in the living will.

Because there was no legal adoption, even if where not true the father could file charges saying he had just found out where the child was and the couple who raised the child did not have his permission to raise the child. Since nether one of them are alive they can not contest this in court. That means they can not be summoned to contest or provide any evidence to their defense that this was not kidnapping and in fact they had permission.

My advice for Megan Feinstein would be to be careful when trying to litigate this. It would be unfortunate if she was implicated in a conspiracy of kidnapping.


[member="sabrina"] where are you legally being held and under what charges?
