Child Custody

questions & answers

Question: My girlfriend and I split up almost a year ago. We have a 15 month old daughter. She won't let me see her. I have paid child support as much as I can. I have to go through the grandmother for visitation, and only get to see her an hour every two weeks if I'm lucky. How do I go about getting joint custody?

Answer: You can file for joint custody at any superior court house. In Maricopa and Pima Counties, they have a Self Service desk where you can find the forms to file yourself. You may also go online to http://www.superiorcourt.maricopa.gov/superiorcourt/self-servicecenter/forms/familycourt/index.asp. You can download the forms on line, and they have instructions on how to go about filing the papers.
