I want to get physical custody of my child. I have prove of husbands drug addiction. Messages, drugs I have found in our home.Could I win custody??

Garcia, I understand you would like physical custody of your child and it is quite possible to get it. You will need to hire an attorney in North Carolina and that is around $2,500 to $4,500 for a non-trial case. If you can not afford an attorney and you are not eligible to get a low-cost or free attorney, you might want to represent yourself in court which would be a cost-effective option. What you would need to do is first make sure that the child is with you at the time you approach the court. Once the child is with you, prepare temporary custody petitions and file it in court, serve the other parent and wait for your court date. On your court date, go in front of the judge (dress appropriate) (speak proper) and answer any questions or concerns the judge may have. If you do decide to go as a Pro Se we do offer Document Preparation, Case Management Service.
