Child Custody

SKILLED AND FOCUSED LEGAL ADVOCACY FOR CUSTODY, VISITATION AND CHILD SUPPORT

Child custody and parental visitation are sensitive, critical aspects of family law litigation, and decisions made in that process will have a significant impact on your children and your parenting role.

In California, courts must consider the best interests of the child when hearing child custody and visitation matters. This standard requires the court to weigh various factors such as the level of tension and disagreement between parents. Even the input factors for a child support calculation may be a source of argument between parents who have separated.
