My SIL is willing to give up her girls to us, for the time being. My nieces (6 and 2) are in the state of Oklahoma. They both have different fathers and the 2 year old's father is currently in prison. Both fathers, currently have had nothing to do with either child for over a year and half. This is just some background to get the right answers. =) I know that I have to have a notarized statement of legal guardianship to get the 6 year old into school. However, what other steps can I we take without a lawyer? If the mother is willing to give them up, is a lawyer really needed? We have limited funds right now but need to get these girls out of the situation/enviroment right away.
