Question: The mother of the children gave me custody the second week of October 2019 she has not provided for the children whatsoever in anyway because she gave me custody of the children does that give me for Cassidy of them

Answer: More information would be needed to answer this question.  Are you the father of the child?  Are you talking about going through the court to give you legal custody?  Custody is now called legal decision-making by the courts. A mother with custody of her children can only hand over legal custody to another by going through the court and obtaining a court order.  You need to sit down with an attorney and go over any legal paperwork you have. There are three programs in Arizona that you can use to get inexpensive legal advice and guidance.  One is the modest means program.  You will need to apply for the program and meet the financial qualifications.  Once you are qualified, Modest Means will send you a list of attorneys whose practice covers your area of concern.  You select a lawyer from the list and will be entitled to a one hour consultation for $75.  If you need additional help and if the lawyer agrees to take your case, the most you will be charged is $75 per hours.  the telephone number is (866) 637-5341.  Both Maricopa County and Pima County have lawyer referral programs that offer a 30 minute consult with an attorney.  Maricopa County's Lawyer Referral Service offers a 30 minute consult with an experienced attorney for $40.  The telephone number is  (602) 257-4434.  Pima County's Lawyer Referral Service offers a 30 minute attorney consult for $35.  The telephone number is (520) 623-4625.
