You can use an automated interview that will complete your forms for you after you answer some questions about what you want to request. To use the automated interview, click here and select the "CHILD CUSTODY: Complaint" interview. It is best to use Chrome or Firefox (Safari is not recommended and not supported).
At the end of the interview you can efile directly through the program or print/save your forms to file in person.
Use the "Custody" forms if the father is known and there is no disagreement about paternity. Use the "Paternity" forms if you mainly need the court to determine who is (or who is not) the father.
