Default Child Custody with unmarried parents

How does the father go about getting custody if he and the mother are not married? Also what rights does the father have? Also what kind of rights do the grandparents have?

Very difficult. You will need to show, conclusively, that the mother's home is detrimental to the child.

Varies from State to State, and may be enforced differently from one court to another.
