Types of Child Custody If you divorce with small children, deciding custody will be one of the issues you deal with during the divorce process.
The
main types of custody are Legal, Physical and Joint or, a variation on one or the other.
Some
couples are able to make these arrangements amicably, while others end up engaged in custody battles that last for several months.
If you find yourself engaged in a custody battle, there are several things you should do to improve your chances of winning in court. There are also some things you should avoid if you don’t want to put your case in jeopardy.
