Reaching a mutual agreement with your ex-partner on custody arrangements or working with a child custody lawyer to find the best possible arrangement can help you to quickly move on with your life. 

Getting advice from an experienced custody lawyer

During and after your separation, we understand that your main concern is to provide your child or children a healthy and secure environment to grow and develop.

You want to have a custody arrangement that will foster your children’s well-being and minimize any adverse effects caused by your separation. 

Reducing the disruption in your children’s lives can be a good way to achieve a “clean” breakup and help your children adapt to the new realities of their lives as you adapt to yours.

The best child custody lawyer can help you identify your rights and obligations so you can make the best possible decision about your children today.

Writing an agreement with a custody lawyer

Should you need the assistance of an family attorney to draft, negotiate and file a parenting plan, custody agreement, access rights arrangement or any other custody arrangement regarding your children, we are eager to get to work for you.

It is important to put together a well-drafted agreement and properly think through your custody arrangement and achieve a sound legal document to properly govern your future custody dealings. 

If your document is well-conceived, then you can prevent additional dispute. If your custody agreement is not clear or ambiguous, then you can expect further dispute if you are unable to work out a mutual agreement with your ex-partner.

By having a experienced family lawyer work on your custody agreement, your lawyer will follow best practices to help you achieve a robust written agreement that you can feel comfortable about and will give you a long-term resolution of your custody dispute.

Custody and parenting after my separation

Once you separate from your spouse, but before you are able to reach any form of agreement on your custody arrangement and parenting, it is important that you seek the advice and counsel of a custody lawyer to guide you on your rights.

The manner that you handle yourself following your separation and your actions in regards to your spouse and children may produce legal effects that you may not have intended. 

Even though you may assume that you are doing the right thing, you should strongly consult with a family lawyer in defining the proper actions to take following your separation so you can preserve your rights as much as possible. 

Custody and parenting during my legal proceedings

Similarly, in the event you are unable to reach an agreement on your parenting schedule and custody, if you end up having to go to court, you have the option of either representing yourself or seeking the representation of a competent custody lawyer.

It is up to you to assess what may be the best option for you. Having a seasoned custody lawyer by your side, either behind the scenes or formally representing you, can be powerful and help you get to your goals quickly.

In many cases, each parent may think in good faith that the court will surely see the injustice and rule in their favor. However, this may not be true all the time. 

Even while suffering an injustice, if you do not present your case properly and file the right evidence at the right time, you will potentially not be able to show injustice and make your case.

You are better off investing some of your money and time to work with a custody attorney to get the job done right.

Custody and parenting after the judgment from the court 

After a judgment is issued, your custody and parenting obligations will still continue for a long time until your children reach the age of majority.

Having said that, whether you have a custody agreement or a judgment on custody, you must continue co-parenting with your ex-spouse for many years to come.

We all know that we are not able to predict everything in our future, we can lose our jobs, fall ill, get into an accident, want to relocate, get married with another person, have another child and the list goes on.

Nonetheless, you should continue finding collaborative ways to deal with your parenting obligations without having to go back to court every time. 

Our custody lawyers can provide you guidance and advice serving as your long-term foundation to resolve your differences and enable you to deal with your custody and parenting obligations as smoothly as possible. 

We are happy to have helped many individuals move on with their lives in a peaceful and stable way. Even if there may be an obstacle on the road, we are here to support you. You can count on us!
