What rights do I have as her father?

Anonymous Asked:

My fiance and I have decided to end our relationship of three years. We have a 18 month old daughter together. My fiance has told me she intends to leave next week to go back to England, where she was born and holds citizenship. My daughter is a Canadian citizen. I have no means to get to England to see my daughter on a regular basis. What rights do I have as her father?

I have read your question. I recommend that you IMMEDIATELY call me at: (877) 668-9386 for a free consultation. You DO NOT have to let your fiancé take your daughter to England. Even if you do, your rights in relation to your daughter should FIRST be confirmed in a signed separation agreement or Court Order.
