Acknowledging Certain Facts About Child Custody

A guardianship lawyer can help parents understand how to take proper steps regarding a child’s educational and medical decisions. Physical custody is the process of deciding who the child will live with. The non-custodian parents get visitation rights. Sometimes both parents get custody, depending on where they live. Most judges tend to give joint custody to parents so that they both get to spend time with their children. Sole legal custody is given if any parent is seen to be involved in alcohol, drug, or physical abuse.
