Child Custody
Current law provides that neither side is presumed to be a "better parent." Instead, each parent has a right to ensure time with their children. In family law cases, parents often have several concerns related to their parental rights, as well as payment of child support. These concerns need to be addressed as early in a case as possible. Courts are interested foremost, in maximizing a child’s regular and continued contact with parents who have shown they are capable of serving the best interests of their children.
A parenting plan is a document that is created in the context of a divorce or other child custody matter that helps parents outline a parenting schedule. The plan usually includes a specific scheme for sharing time with children, and also establishes each parent’s responsibilities to raise and support a child. Parents who can agree on a detailed parenting plan that reflects the overall best interest of a child will often enjoy a more stable, predictable, and consistent schedule that reduces misunderstandings, conflicts, and legal costs. If parents can't agree, the court will set the terms and responsibilities related to custody and child support.
Parents and children all benefit from a detailed parenting plan that provides predictability. Children who know in advance which parent they will be with and what they will be doing usually feel more secure, stable, and self-confident than a child who is left wondering what comes next. Also, a detailed parenting plan can reduce legal costs by reducing misunderstandings between parents, which helps parents stay out of court and away from high litigation costs.
Any parent involved in a case that addresses child custody must have a thorough understanding of current custody laws and trends, including those related to joint custody of children.
