Child Custody
Child custody laws cover determinations on the care, custody and control of a minor or disabled child after a marriage is terminated or in juvenile dependency cases when the child's parents cannot perform their parental responsibilities or the child was abused or neglected. Custody is determined by the child's best interests. In divorce or dissolution cases, custody is awarded to one parent who is the custodial parent or to both parents under a joint custody or shared parenting plan. An attorney's services are essential in custody disputes.*
