Factors Affecting Child Custody
The assistance of a lawyer who is an expert in the field of child custody will be your best help. There are several things that a parent must consider when planning to petition for child custody before the court, and it is usually done when one party is able to satisfy these:
- The parent having stronger emotional ties with the child
- The mental and physical wellbeing of parents
- The parents' financial status and capacity to support
- The wellbeing of the child
- The desires of the parents for the child
- The history of domestic violence
- The safety and education of the child
