Frequently Asked Questions

How does the court decide child custody?
The court focuses on the child’s best interests, including safety, stability, emotional needs, and each parent’s ability to provide care.
What is the difference between legal custody and physical custody?
Legal custody means decision-making power. Physical custody means where the child lives and which parent handles daily care.
Can a custody order be changed later?
Yes, if major life changes affect the child, a parent can ask the court to review and possibly change the order.
What if the order is broken?
You can go back to court for enforcement, and the judge may give penalties or change custody to protect the child.
Does the court prefer joint custody?
Joint custody is common when parents cooperate, but courts choose whatever arrangement best supports the child’s needs and safety.
