Custody 2014
In 2012 the firm won the father temporary custody. At trial, four witnesses from two schools testified to how the child had struggled in the mother's care, including her refusal to consent to special education services.
The outcome
Sole legal and physical custody. The judge limited the mother to six hours a week, less than we would have settled for.
Read the case note…by far the best decision I’ve ever made in my life
Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome.
In New York, the court is supposed to ignore the respective gender of each parent and focus instead on the best interest of the child when determining custody, support, visitation, etc. A court may find that it is in the child’s best interests to grant custody to the father.
What are father’s rights?In order to obtain rights, there must have been an existing relationship in place. The bottom line comes down to whether visitation is harmful or beneficial to a child. Courts will also consider the best interest of the children.
