If you are seeking to "terminate" her rights, abandonment is defined as six months of no contact and no support. If you are seeking other remedies for "abandonment", then I am not sure we could help (except in a divorce).

We can certainly help you consider and then pursue your options.

One of our attorneys can explain the issues and procedures better in person. As you can imagine, there is too much to cover via email. We offer free 1/2 hour consultations, in which we can discuss your matter in detail.

Please call us directly to discuss the specifics of your matter, or contact my assistant Gloria or my paralegal Jennifer to schedule your free 1/2 hour consultation
