We help clients understand the extent of their own rights and those of the opposing parent, to create a custody agreement that fits your family. Those rights can include access to the child’s medical and educational records; decision-making rights regarding the child’s primary residence, moral and religious training, health care, and education; and duties, such as providing care, shelter, and support. For any person seeking possession of the child, the court may order a custody evaluation to determine the child’s best interests in regard to decision making and possession and access. This third party professional will make recommendations to the court.
