Rights to see my siblings?

I'm 18, kicked out of the house when I was 17, and am NOT on good terms with my mom and 2 (out of 6) of my siblings. I currently live with my dad, who's also not allowed to see the kids at all. There's absolutely no legal agreements between my parents, my dad's just too chicken to fight my mom, and my mom's too stubborn to let either one of us see the kids.

I know my dad has rights, but what would it take for him to get visitation? He's VERY reluctant to spend the money to get lawyers involved, after someone told him that it would cost over $100,000. Do I, as an adult sibling, have any legal rights to see them?

What other information do you need?
Thanks so much.
 
First of all your Dad has rights to visitation, I have no idea why it would cost 100k but if your dad is too chicken to fight mom and will not stand up for his rights, then he will not be able to see his kids. He should contact some fathers rights groups to see if anyone can give him some guidance. Has either one of them filed for divorce? That would be a start. He really needs an attorney unless he wants to give mom everything and just get royally hosed.

Your mom really cannot kicjk you out of the house, legally. If you want to go see your siblings you should be able too, but no its not really a right you have. If your mom has prevented any contact from you or Dad, that probably will help your Dad in court.
 
He pretty much has already given her everything, including half of his business. They've been separated for over a year now, but neither one will file for divorce on the other. Legally, they're still married; they're not even separated.

I already got kicked out of the house, and I wanted to go. I'm 18 now, and have no intentions of ever going back, except maybe to help my sibs.

Thanks for your help.
