Who gets custody in Illinois?

What to do if the mother of your child won’t let you see your child?
If you don’t have a court order and you are not being allowed to visit your child, you will have to ask the court to enter a visitation order. You can do this through the divorce court (if you are divorced from the child’s other parent) or the paternity court (if you were never married to the child’s other parent).
