One of the most difficult enterprises in family law is the trial of a custody case. When parents cannot agree on custody of a child, the trial judge must determine with which parent the child will live. This difficult decision is based, above all, on the best interest of the child.

Decisions regarding child custody and other parenting arrangements occur within several different legal contexts, including parental divorce, guardianship, neglect or abuse proceedings, and termination of parental rights.

Both parents have the legal obligation to support a child during and after a divorce. In arriving at a fair amount of child support, the court will look at the needs of the children; and the financial assets, earnings, and needs of each parent.

With Custody cases, you need an experienced trial attorney who can advocate for you and your child's welfare. Teddy & Meekins attorneys are equipped with the legal expertise and knowledge to help you!
