The Complexities Of Custody

The Complexities Of Custody

Relationships are not easy and there are times when it is simply in everyone’s best interest for a couple to separate. This may mean a divorce if the couple is married. There are many things that must be worked out during a divorce proceeding, but there is perhaps nothing more complicated and emotional than issues surrounding any minor children a couple has.

Different types of custody:

Review Of Custody

❖

Physical custody deals with where the child will reside.

❖

Legal custody deals with who gets to make the big decisions regarding the child’s welfare (schools, medical, etc.).

For both physical and legal custody, parents can be awarded joint or sole custody, but it does not have to be the same for both. You will find cases in which both parents have legal custody but only one has physical custody.

There are many factors that go into custody settlements. This can include: ❖ Income levels of the parents ❖ Living arrangements ❖ Job requirements (travel, hours, etc.) ❖ Criminal history ❖ Substance abuse by parents ❖ And more

Is Joint Custody Always Best?

Joint physical custody works only if the two parents cooperate with each other enough so that the child is not affected by squabbling. For disputing parents, joint physical custody can be detrimental to the child. This will inevitably lead to the two parents ending up back in court while the child feels trapped in the middle.
