  Child Custody Lawyer

  The philosophical cornerstone of New York's child custody laws is that regular contact with both parents is normally what is in the best interest of the child. Courts and experts believe children thrive with two parents that are active in their lives. It's important that the custody arrangement maximizes the child's access to both parents while still being compatible with the parents' work schedules and responsibilities. If the parents cannot agree on who should retain custody of the child after a divorce or separation, the court will step in and make the decision for the couple. Your child custody lawyer can help you make the best case possible for your desired outcome. While there is no guarantee that the court will rule in the way you hope, hiring an attorney can improve your standing.
