Helping keep you informed on Parent Custody issues….

Custody issues in a divorce case can easily become controversial and complicate the divorce process. While there are a variety of elements concerning custody, in this video Michigan lawyer Jacob Femminineo delves more deeply into two aspects of the matter: physical custody and legal custody.

Physical custody is, simply enough, where the child lives. Whether the child ultimately resides with the mother or father or is split between both parents homes will be decided during the divorce process. Typically, there is usually one parent who has sole physical custody.

The concept of legal custody is more involved. This type of custody takes into account all the major decisions regarding the child such as care, education, religion, and health. Michigan divorce cases involving children almost always end with joint legal custody. Watch this video to find out why, to get specific examples of situations involving legal custody, and to find out what circumstances will have a judge getting involved.

Child custody is a legal term for describing the relationship and duty between a parent and child in light of situations where both parents of the child no longer wish to share a relationship with each other. Such a situation may involve a divorce, an annulment, or a separation, in which children present in the relationship may not reside with both parents and must be under the primary care of a parent that will make decisions for the child and care for the child.

Leaving the State with Joint Custody

Posted by admin on Aug-13-2010

San Diego divorce attorneys, Elizabeth Brown and Michele Lowenstein, discuss leaving the state while on joint custody. The lawyers explain that the dissolution of a marriage with children includes a parenting plan in which a provision decrees that it is prohibited to change a child’s residency outside of the state of California without a mutual agreement between both parties or a court order. This court order weighs many factors, including how attached the children are to each parent, the age of the children, and the children’s continuing contact with both parents.

Where the court will ultimately go is unpredictable. There are, the two divorce lawyers warn, no guarantees. The determination of the court will be made based on what the California court considers to be in the best interest of the child.

http://www.TheOnlyTrustedGuide.com/child-custody — “Win Your Child Custody By Yourself Now!”

presented by
TheOnlyTrustedGuide.com

Dr. Bricklin and Dr. Elliot are the most famous and respected custody experts have use their 30 years of training and experience to formulate custody strategies that can easily put into action.

“With Unique Strategy That You Will Not Find Anywhere”
Let Them Help You Now !

THIS INFORMATION WILL HELP YOU, AS A FATHER, MAKE YOUR STRONGEST CASE FOR CUSTODY.

It will also directly help protect your children now and in the future. Your children will thank you one day for taking “their best interests” seriously!

First, we would like you to know how we have come to be in possession of so much important information.

Over the 30-plus years of our working in the child custody field, we have become increasingly involved in cases that frequently may find their way into court.

We have acted as expert witnesses, custody evaluators or consultants for hundreds of parents involved in custody disputes all over the country.

Further, as editors of a national publication on custody matters, as responders to a 24-hour “hotline” where we answer questions from professionals about our tests, and as directors of a national organization of custody experts, …

we continually hear from judges, attorneys, professional experts and parents who in one way or another have been caught up in custody disputes, some of them simple, but most longstanding, complex and bitter.

From these activities, we came to gather a huge amount of information on how various psychological and legal strategies, different kinds of evidence, and types of allegations work (or fail to work), both in the courtroom as well as in out-of-court negotiations.

The following are some of our thoughts on what we have experienced. Everything discussed here is covered in our new Strategies handbook.

We were shocked at how many bright, wise, loving—indeed even “savvy”—fathers did not know the single most important fact that must be true if one is to prevail in a custody dispute.

And this must be the best kept secret in the world, because even extremely intelligent, sophisticated professionals fail to make use of it.

Indeed, even attorneys, who themselves as parents are caught up in custody disputes, frequently do not know how to make his single most important factor work for them.

We identified fourteen “key behaviors” that differentiate between parents who do well in custody disputes from those who do not. We consider these behaviors to be strategically critical.

We have identified what we see as the single biggest mistake a father in a custody dispute can make. And the irony here is that our own legal system actually encourages fathers to make this huge mistake.

If you are a father in a child custody dispute, you must learn to recognize (and deal with) blatantly wrong and immoral strategies that will likely be used against you.

To add insult to injury, these strategies can be effective. And in our experience, many attorneys fail to help their clients deal with these tragically effective strategies, because they are more psychological than legal strategies, and attorneys are not often trained either to recognize or deal with them.

Another exceedingly important point is that too many fathers do not fully understand all the important things their attorneys should be doing for them. Simply put, many fathers do not know what they should ask for.
