Child custody cases can exact a heavy toll on all involved, mentally, emotionally, and financially. Child custody cases can exact a heavy toll on all involved, mentally, emotionally, and financially. Because child custody cases tend to be emotionally charged, we work closely with our clients to ensure that their emotions are cool and composed. After all, it’s not unusual for combative couples to accidentally self-sabotage negotiation results by acting impulsively.
Disputes over custody can involve not only the parents and the child or children, but also:
- Other family members
- Friends
- Court-appointed guardians
- Social workers
- Physicians
Extensive litigation can be required, and such cases may drag on for months or years. It is important that you have an attorney representing you in your custody case, as they will be able to fight for an outcome that not only serves the best interests of you and your child, but is as swift and stress-free as possible.
