Child Custody / Visitation
Massachusetts child custody is based on the best interests of the child. If the parents cannot agree to what is in the best interests of the child, then it is necessary to convince the court why a party’s position is in the best interests of the child.
The client and I work collaboratively to determine the strengths and weaknesses of the case in order to present the most compelling argument before the court. I can assist you with the following types of custody issues:
- Legal Custody
- Physical Custody
- Removal from Massachusetts
- Parenting Plans
- Sole Custody
- Visitation Rights
