NWR - Step daughters mother took off with her to CA without letting us know!

We are completely devastated. We just got the news today that my step daughter is now in CA. Her birth mother quite her job packed up the car and drove to CA without telling us. The problem is my husband and babys mother did not have anything in writing as far as custody. We need to get a lawyer and get some help getting her back. Does anyone know a good custody lawyer or where we should begin or what rights he has? This doesn’t even seem legal.

    Unfortunately (at times like this) the laws in this country are really set up to favor the mother in custody cases like this.

    My ex fought like hell to be a part of his daughters life, but due to the crazy baby-mama-drama he rarely got to see her.  I know it can be hugely frustrating and devastating.

    There is a fathers resource center that might be able to direct you towards some helpful ideas??
