Child custody issues can be complex and typically emotions run high. In addition, child custody can have an effect on child support payments. Therefore, it is a good idea to have legal representation from an experienced attorney who can keep you focused and grounded during these stressful times.

Child custody is made up of legal child custody, which refers to the ability to make decisions on behalf of, or concerning, your child; and physical child custody, which is where (and with whom) your child will have their primary residence.

Legal child custody is typically joint legal custody, unless there is good reason to deny one parent legal custody. Physical custody is more complex, because it is often difficult to award joint physical custody due to location and schooling.

The courts usually believe that child interaction with both parents is in the best interest of the child. The courts will use the best of the child to guide them in their decisions about child custody. A skilled child custody attorney can present your case in the best light, ensure your interests are protected, and make sure the court gets your side of the story before making its decisions regarding child custody issues.
