Need legal help/advice.

My grandson was born, May 25, 13 weeks early. He is in Children’s Hosp in the NICU center. He is doing great and has amazed the doctor’s, so far.

The problem is that his dad’s family is trying to take him away from my daughter. They have filed for join custody and I know once paternity has been established they will go for full custody.

I can not allow my grandson to be alone with his dad. He has extreme anger issues. I have seen him beat his own head on car windows, which I put myself in between him and the car. I have seen him beat his fist on the quarter panel of a truck. At his previous residents there were holes in the walls from him putting his head through them. He told me what all the holes were from. I’ve asked him why he does these things and he told me it’s because he gets so angry and while he was growing up his older brother use to beat him in the head. His brother is mentally retarded and lives in the care of their Mother.

I can not allow my grandson to visit their family unsupervised. Between his dad’s own issues and his brothers.

My daughter lost two other babies because they were born too early and could not be saved. I can not tell you how upset and scared she is over all of this.

She doesn’t have a job, she lives at home with me. I can’t afford a lawyer as I live on disability.

Please someone give me sound advice on what to do. We live in Maryland.
Sincerely

Immediately contact your local Legal Aid Society and find a lawyer who will work for your daughter pro bono–free.

I don’t think the parents of the worthless father have a snowball’s chance in hell–as long as you have a lawyer representing you!

DON’T go into court without a lawyer! Don’t even think about it!

Best of luck to all of you!
