Experienced Child Custody And Child Support Help In Virginia
In custody matters, Virginia courts will always consider the best interests of the children. While this term is vague, it refers to the ability of the parents to care for their kids physically, financially and emotionally. The custody agreement, parenting plan, visitation schedule and child support payments will all be determined by your role as a parent.
There are three primary types of custody:
- Full custody – When the child lives with a parent full-time and that parent is responsible for parental decisions
- Physical custody – The primary home where the child will live
- Joint legal custody – When a parent has a decision-making role in the child’s upbringing, even if the child is not under their physical custody
While custody is often the most contested decision in co-parenting, there are many other legal issues to determine:
- Visitation schedules
- Parenting plans
- Child support
- Relocation and modifications
