Fighting for the Best Interest of Your Child

Divorcing spouses are given the opportunity to resolve issues on their own; however, in certain cases, a litigated approach may be the only option. When couples cannot reach agreements, disputes will head into the courtroom where a judge will award custody based on the “best interests” of the child. The facts in your case will not always speak for themselves and your ability to effectively communicate your situation to the court can drastically impact your case. When your family’s future is on the line, don’t take any chances. Our firm knows what the court will be looking for and can help you present your case accordingly.

Factors a judge may consider when awarding custody include:

• The quality of the parent-child relationship
• Each parent’s ability to financially provide for a child
• The physical and mental health of each parent
• If a child has special or health-related needs
• The post-divorce location of each parent
• If there is any evidence of spousal abuse or domestic violence

At the Woodard Law Group, we understand that it is critical to never lose sight of the bigger picture. For this reason, our clients are never treated as just a number in a system. Our legal team sits down with each person to develop strategies that best fit their family situation as a whole.
