By law, if the mother and the father of a child were not married at the time of the child's birth, the mother has sole custody of the child until a court issues a custody order. This is true even if the parents have signed a Recognition of Parentage and both names appear on the child's birth certificate.

To sign over custody, legal parents can draft a parenting plan giving sole legal and physical custody to one parent. In the U.S., you must have the plan approved by a court. In most other countries, court approval is optional. If you don't seek court approval, at least sign the agreement in front of a notary.
