As a parent, your relationship with your child is priceless — and it deserves to be protected. At Garnes Law, we advocate fiercely for your parental rights while keeping your child’s best interests at the heart of every decision. Whether you’re negotiating a custody arrangement, modifying an existing order, or facing a difficult dispute, we are here to help you achieve a fair and workable solution.
Every custody case is unique, but most fall into one of two categories:
Legal Custody: The right to make major decisions about your child’s life (education, healthcare, religion, etc.).
Physical Custody: The determination of where your child lives and how parenting time
is shared.
Within these, courts may award sole custody (one parent has primary authority/responsibility) or joint custody (shared between both parents). We help you understand how state laws apply and fight for an arrangement that safeguards both your rights and your child’s well-being.
If one parent is awarded primary custody, the other is typically granted visitation rights. Visitation may be:
Scheduled Parenting Time: A structured schedule that clearly outlines weekends,holidays, and vacations.
Supervised Visitation: Required when there are concerns about the child’s safety or
welfare.
Flexible Arrangements: Tailored schedules that allow for more cooperative parenting.
At Garnes Law, we strive to create visitation plans that reduce conflict, promote stability, and keep your child’s best interests front and center.
