PA Custody laws

You should talk with him to discuss his involvement with his daughter. Typically a custody arrangement for the non-custodial parent is every other weekend and one night during the week. Due to your child's young age, I wouldn't consider that appropriate now, expecially if you are still nursing. But, you can't make a parent participate. But I would come to an agreement as soon as possible. Next item to discuss is support. Whether he likes it or not, he is responsible for support. Support will be based upon what each party makes, or a deemed income for a non-working parent. You can go down to the family division and file a petition for child support yourself. Support won't start until you file, so do it quickly.

Many other factors come into the question, of which more facts are needed. But this is a general overview. If you have questions then you may call my office for a free consultation. Just mention that you saw our response on AVVO. Thank you. Steve O'Brien.
