Child Custody cases are almost always complex and are always difficult. As a result, they are usually expensive. I do not recommend that anyone enter into custody litigation lightly. You should be able to articulate several strong reasons why the child(ren) would be better off with one parent and in general this means stating that the other parent would not be a fit person to have custody.

Examples of reason why a person would not be fit to have custody are; alcoholism, drug addiction, and physical or mental abuse.

If you believe you have a situation involving a genuine custody dispute, please, phone or contact me as soon as possible for your free initial consultation.
