My mom married her now ex husband when I was little and years later had my two baby sisters, now age 12 and 13. He was extremely abusive to me and my other full sister so my mom left, but he has joint custody of my half sisters. He is emotionally abusing them to the point where my sisters are very emotionally immature. My step dad has told my sisters if my mom gets remarried he'll kill all of them. My family lives in a little town in Nebraska. The police will not listen to my mom or sisters and my mom can't afford a lawyer and won't stick up to my stepdad for fear that he will hurt my sisters.
I am the oldest sister. I live in South Carolina with my husband. Together we gross annually about $60,000/year. My mother has multiple sclerosis and she can't take care of herself. The apartment she lives in with my sisters is absolutely disgusting and my mom spends a lot of time in bed depressed. If something happens to my mother or she is ruled unfit to take care of my sisters, how likely am I to win a custody battle over my stepdad who I believe has just a slight criminal record, but joint custody of my sisters?
How does the process work for my sisters to go to court when they're old enough and say they don't want to live with their dad? My mother can't afford a lawyer but my husband and I are already willing to pay for one AND move my mom and sisters down south when my stepdad goes looking for them.
