WomensLaw serves and supports all survivors.
In our Alabama Custody section, we created the questions Can a judge terminate the abuser’s parental rights if the abuser is convicted of a sex crime? and Aside from a conviction for a sex crime, are there other circumstances when parental rights can be terminated?, and we updated the question What are the steps for filing for custody?.
