File for child custody

In Utah, you have no rights to the child in any way until you obtain court orders. You need to file a paternity action to establish your rights and obligations. I am sorry to hear that mom is not allowing you contact with your child. Your situation involves major factual and procedural issues. These are issues that we can discuss. Not having an attorney is a big mistake in a custody dispute. There are preferences for "joint custody" which may not be best in your case. As such, you need to prepare to vigorously assert your custody claims and concerns to do what truly is in the child's best interests. I am an aggressive family law attorney who has experience with paternity, custody, adoption, and difficult cases. I know what these cases are like, having handled a number. If you are interested in pursuing the matter further, I offer an initial 1/4 hour consultation without charge, and a 1/2 hour consultation for $50. If you want to set an appointment for the initial consultation, feel free to telephone, or email, my office. 
Don't wait any longer, give a call tomorrow (today the courts are closed so there is nothing I can do) and let's getting working to protect your interests in this child.
