Our Child Custody Attorney Puts Your Child’s Best Interests Firstre is Our Top Priority
The court's main focus in custody cases is the child's well-being. If parents can't agree on a plan, the court will decide on physical and legal custody. Physical custody covers the child's living arrangements and time spent with each parent, while legal custody involves making key decisions about the child's upbringing.
Factors the courts weigh when deciding custody include:
- Parental preferences
- Children's choices, if mature enough
- The quality of parent-child relationships
- Children's involvement in school and community
- Children's special needs, whether educational, medical, or other
- Parents' ability to meet the child's various needs
- Incidence of domestic violence
We understand the importance of stability for children. The courts also consider the parents' co-parenting capabilities, including dispute resolution and cooperation potential.
During a divorce, your children's welfare is paramount. Our seasoned Burnsville and Minneapolis child custody attorneys can guide you to a custody and visitation agreement that safeguards your child's best interests and your parental rights.
We Are Experienced Mediators
Custody disagreements are not uncommon. When parents have differing views on their child's best interest, our lawyers can offer mediation or alternative dispute resolution (ADR) services. If a resolution isn't possible through ADR and court becomes necessary, you'll want a tenacious litigator by your side. Our visitation attorneys at Burns Law Office are prepared for trial and will passionately represent you and your family.
