Custody
WomensLaw.org currently does not have information about custody law in Rhode Island. This section provides information about custody that is not specific to any state, including how to try to transfer your custody case to a new state where you are living so that you can modify the custody order from your new state.
In addition, we hope these links to outside sources may be helpful.
Rhode Island Legal Services has information you can read about on the basic custody process.
