Child Custody & Visitation in California

Family law in California with respect to child custody and visitation is designed to protect the best interests of the child. The primary concern of the court is to ensure that the health, safety, and welfare of the children is well considered. Each case begins with the assumption that children benefit from frequent and continuing contact with both parents.

When parents that are separating cannot agree on how to divide responsibilities, the court decides for them. Ideally separating couples are able to reach an agreement among themselves before turning the decision over to the judge. A good family law attorney helps you reach a settlement that fits your needs and schedule without going to court. In the event that the other side is unreasonable or uncooperative, your attorney protects your parental rights in court.
