What is Child Custody?
During a divorce, the court's main focus is that your child or children
will be properly provided for. They take a number of factors into account
when making a decision on which parent will have custody. This may include
which spouse makes a larger income, which house is closer to the child's
school, and the child's personal wishes, if they are old enough to
have input.
The main types of child custody include:
- Full physical custody
- Shared physical custody
- Full legal custody
- Shared legal custody
