Child Custody

Child custody refers to the legal rights and responsibilities of parents to make decisions and provide care for their children. In the context of a divorce, child custody can be one of the most emotionally charged and complex issues to be resolved.

At the Law Office of Michael Werley, our attorneys have extensive experience in handling child custody cases. We understand the importance of ensuring that the best interests of the child are protected and strive to create a custody arrangement that is in the best interest of the child and that ensures that the child maintains a healthy relationship with both parents.

Our attorneys will work with you to understand your unique situation and help you to determine the best course of action. We will assist in the negotiation of any issues surrounding child custody, and will represent you in any court proceedings.

There are two types of child custody: physical custody and legal custody. Physical custody refers to where the child lives, while legal custody refers to the parents’ rights and responsibilities to make decisions about the child’s education, medical care, and other important matters.

It is possible for parents to have joint legal and physical custody, or for one parent to have sole legal and physical custody. Our attorneys will work with you to understand your individual case and help you to determine the best course of action for your family.

If you are facing child custody issues, it is important to seek the assistance of an experienced attorney as soon as possible. The Law Office of Michael Werley is dedicated to providing compassionate and effective representation for our clients facing these issues. Contact us today to schedule a consultation.
