In addition to representing clients during the initial determination of child custody, we also assist parents with the modification and enforcement of child custody and visitation orders.
Making the Case for Your Desired Outcome
When a judge is faced with a decision about child custody, he or she is legally obligated to consider the best interests of the children. However, it is not always easy for a judge who doesn't know you and your children to figure out what would be in their best interests.
Ideally, we can work with you and the other party and opposing counsel to negotiate a parenting plan that meets your goals and expectations, and ensures that the best interest of the children truly are met.
However, if your child custody case requires court intervention, our experienced trial lawyers are fully prepared to document and present the exact reasons why the judge should rule in your favor and order the outcome you are seeking.
