Throughout your divorce or child custody dispute, we will help you keep the focus on the best interests of the child. Usually, one parent is awarded full residential custody of the child, with generous child visitation rights given to the other parent. In some cases, parents are given joint residential custody and have equal time with the child.

Whatever the arrangement, the court will seek to provide children with the most stable and supportive environment. The needs of the parents are secondary. In addition to determining where the child will live, a parenting plan usually awards decision-making powers to both parents jointly in matters of education, health, and other important issues.

Results in Child Custody Disputes

We have extensive experience litigating King County's tough child custody cases. We have succeeded in winning custody for our clients facing a variety of challenges, including awards of full custody to fathers of young children. Whether you are a non-custodial parent seeking custody or modification of the parenting plan, a primary residential parent seeking modification of a visitation schedule, or a grandparent seeking time with your grandchildren, you want the competent, caring, experienced legal counsel we can provide.

Relocation

If you are interested in relocation, Washington State requires you to give notice to the child's other parent and any other individuals entitled to residential time with your child. If you have a problem with the other parent's relocation request, you have a limited time to record your objection with the court. The law is complex and the requirements strict. We can help you preserve your parental rights and do what is best for your family.
