dear client though mother is homeless still she can claim custody of child. but if she stayed with other man without divorce then she will not get custody. because residing with other man without divorce amount to adultery. while decide custody petition court see the atmosphere of house where child will be raised. so if mother will live in adultery then court will not give the custody of child to her. for any legal help call me
