How Do the Courts Determine the Best Interest of Your Child?
Judges in custody cases consider a wide variety of factors in determining what is best for children, including:
- What kind of emotional ties to the children have with family members?
- Is domestic violence or abuse present in the home?
- Who has been the primary care giver?
- How well do both parents work together?
- Is either parent disparaging the other in front of the child?
The attorneys of Peterson & Peterson work to make sure the needs of children are provided for by any custody agreement and that their clients receive a fair deal.
How Much Parenting Time are You Entitled To?
Parents are encouraged to resolve custody and parenting time issues directly with the other parent, as most parents know their children better than anyone else. However, for parents who can not agree, it is important to know what to expect if you allow a judge to make a decision about the children. It is also equally important to make sure the most relevant facts to custody and parenting time are presented to the Judge to allow them to make the best decision possible.
