What Can a Family Lawyer Help With?
There are many reasons why you might need help from a family lawyer. From crafting co-parenting agreements and mediation, to child custody, support and contested divorce settlements.
Divorce/Dissolution of Marriage
Ending a marriage is never easy. A good divorce attorney will help ensure you receive a fair settlement of any assets, reasonable support, and a parenting arrangement that is in the best interests of you and your children.
Child Custody and Visitation
As a parent, you have a natural legal right to care for and be involved in the lives of your children. A custody lawyer will help you establish a parenting plan that protects your rights and enables you to spend a fair and reasonable amount of time with your kids.
Child Support
A separation can create immense financial hardship for parents. Hiring a child support attorney can help ensure the child support order is fair and reasonable, and enables you to care for your child's welfare financially.
Adoption
Adoption attorneys help you decide if adoption is right for you and your family, and then assist you with completing the legal process required to adopt a child and make legal and financial decisions on their behalf from that point forward.
Legal Help with Resolving Your Family Law Issue
Family law issues are uniquely personal and can often be exceptionally emotional because of the nature of the relationships involved. The insight and guidance of a knowledgeable and compassionate family lawyer will be invaluable for helping eliminate unnecessary stress, and achieving a favorable legal outcome for you and your children.

How Can a Family Lawyer Help You?
When you hire a family lawyer to represent you, here are some of the things they can help you achieve:
More Time With Your Kids
A family lawyer can help you by negotiating with the other party or advocating on your behalf in court to make sure that any visitation or custody agreement is fair and in the best interests of your children
Favorable Divorce Settlement
A lawyer can help get you a favorable divorce settlement that can provide you with financial security.
Fair and Reasonable Support Payments
A lawyer can provide advice on the applicable laws and can help you to negotiate a support agreement with the other party. A lawyer can also represent you in court if necessary.
Child Custody - Understanding and Defending Your Parental Rights
One of the most difficult issues facing parents who are no longer living together involves where their child will live. The court refers to this as custody of the child, and the parent with whom the child lives is called the custodial parent. In most cases, the noncustodial parent will have ongoing, regular visits with the child.
Joint Custody
Parents can share joint custody. This does not necessarily mean that the child's time is divided evenly with each parent, but instead refers to a situation in which the child lives part of the time with each parent rather than living only with one and visiting the other. In cases of joint custody, the parent who has the child most of the time is called the primary custodial parent.

These decisions are important because they directly impact visitation schedules and child support payment amounts.
Non-Custodial Parents Can Still Have Decision Making Rights
Custody of a child is not the same as responsibility for that child. Many parents believe that if they do not have physical custody of their child they no longer have rights to make decisions impacting their child's life. More often than not, this is untrue. Most of the time, regardless of custody arrangement, both parents continue to share responsibilities for making decisions affecting their child's health, education, and general well-being.
Uncontested vs. Contested Custody Issues
Sometimes parents agree on a custody arrangement without the court's help. In most cases, courts will enforce arrangements that both parents agree to. A judge may even order parents to participate in mediation (in which a neutral third person tries to help the parents reach a mutual agreement) in order to avoid having the court impose the final decision.
If parents cannot agree to a custody arrangement, the courts do make the final decision, with the goal of doing what is in the child's best interest. There is no clear formula for making that decision, but a court may look to factors like the child's age, the child's bonds with both parents, and the reasonableness of each parent in ensuring that the other parent maintains a healthy relationship with the child. Be aware that the court can consider a broad range of factors besides these three noted.
Modification of Child Custody Orders
After a custody agreement is reached, circumstances can change in a way that makes it necessary to modify custody. For example, one parent may move, or it may become clear that the primary custodial parent is participating in activities that are not healthy for the child, such as drug abuse. In such situations, the courts can change custody orders.
Legal Help In Resolving Child Custody Issues
Understanding how all of these issues are evaluated by the court can be overwhelming in the middle of an already emotionally challenging situation. Your unbundled provider attorney will advise you on how to arrive at a workable and fair custody arrangement. Your unbundled provider attorney is familiar with both the legal and emotional challenges parents face in custody issues and has worked through them before.
Your provider attorney is helpful in preparing you for what to expect in court when you cannot reach an agreement with the other parent, and helps explain to the court why the arrangement you propose is best for your child.
Custody issues can be challenging, and that is why your unbundled provider attorney is an important resource to help achieving the best possible outcome for you and your child.
