Assuming you are 18 years of age and have completed your senior year of high school I suggest that you consult with your local department of social services to see what you can do to get custody of your minor sister. You should also consult with a family law attorney as well.

Although AttorneyPages.com has verified the attorney was admitted to practice law in at least one jurisdiction, he or she may not be authorized to practice law in the jurisdiction referred to in the question, nor is he or she necessarily experienced in the area of the law involved.
