Child Custody & Visitation Law

Child custody issues are often tied to divorce cases or legal separation. If you have children, they should be the major concern in your divorce case, as their well-being is very important. Your spouse should have the same interests as you. The court may award one parent custody and the other visitation rights. These are often determined by the court in the best interests of the child or children and may cause issues for you and your estranged spouse.

Divorce can be tiring and deciding who gets custody of which child may be emotionally draining. However, you must shield your children from the details of any court action involving them. As much as divorce is tiring for the adults involved, it can also be a traumatic experience for the children caught in the middle.
