When determining physical custody, it is important to consider the interests and well being of the children involved before addressing the desires of the parents. Discovering what the children enjoy doing, with whom they have the closest bond and the dreams they have can guide parents in deciding who will maintain physical custody. Parental factors include ability to care for the children and help them with their homework, income level and potential as well as parenting skills.
Considering the best interests of the child is essential.
The visitation schedule is established so the non-custodial parent receives his or her rightful time with the children. The court can impose a visitation agreement or the parties can work out their own. Court-imposed visitation usually occurs when the parents are unable to come to an agreement on their own. In these cases, a judge drafts the agreement for them. As your lawyers, we work with you and the other parties involved to engineer specific, individualized visitation programs to:
- Best serve the needs of the children
- Meet the needs of the visiting adult
- Provide a safe visiting environment
