Rowena Nicole Nelson

I was born on the lovely island of Jamaica. My family migrated to the United States when I was 12 years old. I completed my formal education in Florida up to and including Law School. I am licensed to practice law in the District of Columbia, Maryland and Virginia. I have been a licensed attorney for 16 years. My office is located in Prince George’s County, Maryland. I practice in areas of Bankruptcy, Criminal Law, Business Law, Family Law and Wills.

I also have a Private Pilot’s Certificate and I am rated to fly a Single engine, normal category, land airplane. I enjoy flying when I am not advocating for my clients in court.

A: No, you both equal rights to be a parent to the minor child. You should file for Custody, Visitation and Access to the minor child. Also, be very clear to the mother in your communication that you do not consent to her denying you access to the child.
