Gaining custody as a non-biological parent can be difficult, but it is still possible in a few situations. Generally, you need the biological parents to consent to your custody.Only a judge can give you custody, which you must request by filing a petition with the appropriate court.
The legal definition of an unfit parent is when the parent through their conduct fails to provide proper guidance, care, or support. Also, if there is abuse, neglect, or substance abuse issues, that parent will be deemed unfit.
Parents can include a request for temporary custody order in their divorce papers, or request one shortly thereafter.Non-custodial parents who want to take temporary custody away from the father or mother and win permanent custody need to show they, too, offer a stable and secure environment for their children.
The second method for getting custody is called non-parent custody, which is also called in loco parentis custody. In loco parentis means in place of the parents or instead of the parents. In this case, non-parents file with the court where the child currently or permanently resides.
In Washington State, when two unmarried parents have a child, custody defaults to the mother. However, if paternity is established for the father, his rights as a parent will hold equal weight in court.
