good day atty fred, i would like to inquire if there is a great probability that the biological father of a 4 year old child be granted the custody of the girl. A (a woman) is married to B. B while detained for an alleged violation of a special law, wife A had an illicit relationship with C who is single. from this relationship, a child was conceived and born. the child’s birth certificate bore the name of B as her father. A is bound to work abroad. C desires to have custody over the child. can C be preferred to have custody over the child than A’s parents? (no criminal charge/s was/were file by B against A and C)
thank you atty fred for your reply.

I am separated to my ex-husband for almost 10 yrs now having one 11 yrs. old daughter. I filed bigamy last 2001 against him in QC Hall thru public attorney but nothing happened and refiled last 2006 but till now no result yet. He has not given financial support to my daughter.
Can I change my name and not use his surname anymore including changing all my id’s (i.e. SSS passport) so whatever happens to me, my daughter will be the beneificary? Can I re-marry considering the length of time we have not been together and with no communication at all?

I just feel like it’s so unfair for not having my new life and family with my daughter. I am really desperate in seeking for anybody’s legal advice.
Thank you very much and God bless.

my sister married 2 yrs ago and wasnt aware that the husband was previously married. the guy said that it is not valid since the 1st wife was also married to another man. what should they do to settle this?

if a man who was previously married, to a woman who is also previously married (each of their spouses are still living, and their previous marriages are both valid), is there a possibility that in some way, they could be “safe” from prosecution since both of them are offenders? is there a statute of limitation for bigamy? the man reconciled with his 1st wife and the 2nd wife is vengeful. the only thing that is stopping her from filing a bigamy case against the man is the fear of facing the same charges. since in this case, the only “victims” are wife no.1 and husband no.1 and both are not complaining, is there a way that the man can be immune from prosecution if the 2nd wife files a case? what if she is insanely desperate and is prepared to go to jail just so the man and his 1st wife will have a miserable life? what should the man and wife no. 1 do in order to prevent/avoid problems that may arise if wife no.2 becomes insanely vengeful? thank u.

[...] For purposes of remarriage, there must be a court order declaring the marriage as null and void. Entering into a subsequent marriage without such court declaration means that: (a) the subsequent marriage is void; and (b) the parties open themselves to a possible charge of bigamy. [...]
