Sole custody means one parent has the primary responsibility for the child's upbringing. This parent makes key decisions regarding the child's welfare, education, and health. The non-custodial parent may have visitation rights but not decision-making authority without agreement from the custodial parent.
How do visitation rights work?
Visitation rights are granted to the non-custodial parent to ensure they maintain a relationship with the child. The visitation schedule is typically outlined in the custody agreement and may include weekends, holidays, and vacation periods. Both parents are encouraged to be flexible and communicate well for success.
Can custody arrangements be changed?
Yes, custody arrangements can be modified if there is a significant change in circumstances that affects the child's best interests. A formal request to modify the custody order must be filed with the court, which will assess the proposed changes and decide if they benefit the child.
Do I need a lawyer for custody cases?
While not required, having a lawyer can be beneficial for understanding your rights and navigating the legal system effectively. A lawyer can help draft custody agreements, represent you in court, and ensure that the custody arrangements are in your child's best interests. Legal advice is especially valuable if disputes arise.
