How difficult is it for an aunt to get custody when her niece's parents are on drugs and unsupportive?

Answer:

Answer

You will certainly need to see a lawyer about this and have proof that what you say is true. This is a very tricky proceeding and that is why getting a lawyer is very important. Most courts prefer that a child stay within the family fold if possible, so you would stand a good chance of getting custody of the child.
