Child custody and visitation decisions can shape a child’s future and define how parents continue to share responsibilities after separation. Premier Legal Services helps parents navigate these matters with a focus on stability, fairness, and the best interests of the child. Whether you’re establishing an agreement or modifying an existing order, we work to create solutions that support your role in your child’s life.
Custody refers to the legal and physical care of a child. Legal custody grants the right to make important decisions about health, education, and upbringing. Physical custody determines where the child lives. Visitation (also known as parenting time) outlines the schedule for when the non-custodial parent spends time with the child. These arrangements can be joint or sole, depending on many factors including the child’s needs, parental fitness, and the ability to cooperate.
Our attorneys help parents pursue custody and visitation plans that protect both their rights and their child’s well-being. From mediation and negotiation to courtroom representation, we tailor our approach to fit your family dynamic.
We understand how emotional and high-stakes custody issues can be. Our goal is to reduce conflict and create practical parenting arrangements that give children the support and structure they need.
Our services include:
Initial Custody Determinations: Helping parents establish fair, workable custody and visitation agreements during divorce or legal separation.
Parenting Plan Development: Creating detailed schedules that define weekdays, weekends, holidays, and summer breaks.
Modifications: Seeking changes to custody or visitation due to relocation, lifestyle changes, or the evolving needs of the child.
Enforcement: Assisting with court action when custody or visitation orders are not being followed.
Emergency Orders: Acting swiftly in situations where a child’s safety is at risk.
Our attorneys are committed to helping parents resolve custody disputes in a way that supports the emotional and developmental needs of their children. We also assist with resolving disagreements through mediation when possible, but we’re prepared to advocate strongly in court when necessary.
Custody and visitation decisions are deeply personal and legally complex. The right legal guidance makes a significant difference.
