Child Custody Lawyer Ramsey, NJ

Child custody cases can be contentious and divisive. Our job is to help you protect your rights and reach a conclusion that represents the best interests of your child or children. We will guide you through every step of the custody process, advocating for you and your children. In New Jersey, courts decide custody based on what is in the best interest of the child. This includes considering the health and safety of the child, if the child has special needs, the age of the child, the respective home situations, if there is a history of or allegations of domestic violence, the parents’ occupations and work schedules, the cooperation of the parents, and the child’s preference.

Custody is typically broken down into two broad categories: physical custody and legal custody. Physical custody refers to the physical home that the child lives in. Legal custody refers to the legal ability to make decisions regarding the child’s care and upbringing. This includes decisions about education, religious upbringing, medical care, and more. Both physical and legal custody can be awarded as sole or joint custody, but in New Jersey courts typically favor joint custody rather than sole custody.

A joint custody agreement does not necessarily mean that the custody agreement splits custody 50/50 between the parents. Our Ramsey child custody attorney will help you work towards a custody arrangement that is fair and within the best interests of your child or children.
