Child Custody and Paternity Actions

Legal Solutions to Child Custody Disputes

It’s no surprise that a divorce – and the decisions made to achieve it – can have a long-lasting and deep impact on the children. At Wyatt Law & Associates, we put the best interests of the children first while also considering our clients’ rights as parents. We do all we can to ensure the children enjoy a healthy relationship with both parents while acting on behalf of our clients.

We strive to minimize stress and conflict during emotionally charged custody negotiations. If we can’t reach a negotiated agreement, we’ll take the case to court. When such cases go to court, there are a number of factors judges consider in determining custody:

• Ensuring that relationships with both parents are maintained
• Parenting plans submitted by each parent
• The ability of each parent to provide a safe home
• The ability of each spouse to perform their duties as a parent
• The mental and physical health of the parents and the children
• The wishes of the child

Custody arrangements may result in sole custody or joint custody. Sole custody means the child lives full-time with one parent – who makes all decisions for the child. Joint custody is where the child splits time between both households. Both parents share decision-making responsibilities involving the well-being of the children. 

The court prefers to have both parents remain involved in the lives of the children; however, every family situation is different, and so are the outcomes of custody cases. We make sure to work for the best interests of your children while representing your best interests. 

Don’t put off getting legal representation for a custody dispute.
