Asked over 2 years ago - Vancouver, WA
FlagMy parents and this attorney has been forgery my name and figured out how they been doing it it's called destruction they file improper papers and take out papers on each thing that has been filed by WA state law do grandparents have legal rights to have custody of my son? I need something to show to commissioner so he can see, I was told by two attorney's and a good friend of mine grandparents don't have rights to have custody I have custody of my younger son it's my older son they did this to me and I also looked up my civil rights and they been making false accusations abuse everything and telling lies in court.
Grandparents can only get custody under RCW 26.10.032, the non-parental custody statute.

There is a high Constitutional presumption in favor of biological parents' custody, as long as the parents are fit.

There are a lot of good family law attorneys in Vancouver, such as Steve Bogdon:

My analysis is based on the limited facts available to me; you should get your own lawyer and take that lawyer's advice after he or she has all the facts.
