None of the above. You hire the best person you can work with as a team. A new attorney with a highly experienced paralegal can be as effective as an experienced attorney. The primary issue here is not the attorney, it's you! How much have you done to prepare? Do you keep a daily journal? Have you prepared a chronological statement? How many months of evidence have you put together? If you expect to just hand it over to an attorney to do everything, you are going to be spending a lot of money with no sure results. You need to prepare, than you interview 6-10 attorneys before choosing one to hire. See links below

Can a sister give a sister temporary custody of child without fathers consent?
That depends on the legal custody agreement in place. If no custody agreement has been hammered out in court, you should contact the family court in your county of residence, or an attorney, for information on filing papers to assign temporary guardianship of your child to your sister. You may both have to appear in court so the judge can determine whether or not such an arrangement is in the best interests of the child. In other words, cover your bases. Fathers do have rights and if he finds out that you are violating his rights, you may be facing a custody battle.

How does a father get temporary custody of his child?
To my knowledge, if a state agency is not involved because of negelct or abuse, your mother-in-law can get temporary custody if you go to family court and ask that she take temporary custody until you are ready to take them back; it could be because you are having financial difficulty, hospitalization or other issue that you need to deal with As far as your mother-in-law getting custody against your will, I don't think that can happen.
