Child Custody

In cases of divorce, involving a couple with minor children, the court of jurisdiction over the divorce proceedings also makes the decision on child custody arrangements.  When making this decision, the court strives to keep in the mind the best interests of the child or children.  This requires adequate information from both parties. 

The parent with custody makes decisions related to the child(ren)’s education, religious upbringing and health care.  There are several options available to a court – Temporary custody, exclusive custody, joint custody or even granting custody to a third party.
