How Can I Protect My Parental Rights?
As a parent, it’s natural that you want to do everything in your power to protect your children during this process, which is why it is extremely important that you have legal representation. While the aim of the court is to come to a decision that is in the best interest of the child, it is our job to provide the court with the information necessary to make that decision.
It is important to note that in custody disputes concerning children 12 or older, the court may seek the aid of the child to express their preference as to which parent they would prefer to live with.
What Not To Do In A Child Custody Dispute
It's understandable that child custody cases can bring many emotions to the surface. All parties involved are usually stressed and worried about the outcome. In spite of those feelings, it's important to listen to your child custody lawyer. Poor behavior could negatively impact a judge's ruling, so consider what is best for your child.
Keep these two things in mind during a custody battle:
- Act as though the judge on your child custody case is watching
- Prioritize your child's wellbeing above all else
