Child Custody Disputes During and After Divorce
Child custody disputes during a divorce can be highly contested matters. Even well meaning parents can have honest disagreements about what is in the best interests of children.
At the Samaha Law Firm in Montrose, California, we encourage our clients to pursue cooperative solutions to divorce and child custody disputes. Though we are always prepared to protect our client's rights fully at trial when necessary, we believe cooperative solutions normally create a stronger foundation for family unity and success.
If you want to file for divorce or have been served with a petition for divorce, we encourage you to contact our law office for assistance. To schedule a consultation with attorney Thomas J. Samaha, call 818-541-1101, or contact us by e-mail. From our office in Montrose, we serve clients throughout the Los Angeles area, including Glendale, Pasadena, La Cañada, La Crescenta and Burbank.
Child Custody Modifications
In addition to child custody and visitation issues that may arise during a marriage, our firm represents clients in post-divorce disputes involving child custody and visitation. When there is a change in circumstances, you may be able to receive a modification to your original divorce judgment. Changes in your job or personal lifestyle may necessitate modifications to the previously agreed upon visitation or custody arrangements. When you are unsure, you should seek legal counsel to determine all your available options.
To learn more about the standard for a change of custody, see our page on modification of child custody. To learn more about your rights in a parenting time dispute, visit our page on visitation.
