Interstate Custody Issues

Protecting The Interests of Children and the Rights of Parents

All child custody issues have the potential to become complicated and intensely emotional for parents and their children. Custody and parenting time is often the most vexing issue in a divorce and between unmarried parents, even when both parents are making an honest effort to arrive at an outcome that is in the best interest of the children.

Parents living in different states add a whole new layer of complexity to the issue, creating the potential for confusion, agitation, and extensive litigation. Having an experienced attorney working with you is a must if you face an interstate custody issue.
