I have a 2 year old daughter and her father left me when she was 5 months old and the last time he saw her was 2 weeks before Christmas 2006, he and I were never married. He knows where she is and how to get ahold of me and see her, but has failed in trying to contact me or see her. I do not have a child support order and I want to know how I can go about filing abandonment and getting child support along with it?

I am a single mother of 2 beautiful girls my baby's dad left me before I gave birth to my second child and I did get him for child support I went to the child support office and filed dor it they ask you simple ?'s I would strongly suggest you to get him for that!!

Start with your local Children and family services agency. They can advise you. As long as you can prove paternity you shouild be able to get a court to order support.

Forget the abandonment issue.

I'm not sure what you mean by "filing abandonment." As for the child support, you need to petition the Family Court for an order of child support. That entails proving that he's the father, verifying his income, then getting an order for wage attachment. He may concurrently petition for an order for visitation which you would then be bound to.
