I was wondering if I could get custody of my niece, and where to start. My younger brother called and told me that he wants to sign his parental rights over to me due to personal reasons. I am willing to do this, but I have no idea where to start. Should I just go to family court, do we need an attorney, and do we need her mother to be present to agree? We aren't trying to sign over the mother's rights, just my brother, the father's parental rights. It's an odd situation in my opinion, and I'm not sure what to do and where to begin trying to so this.
