Helping Parents Secure Custody And Visitation Rights
As a parent, nothing is more important than your children. You are determined to protect their rights and yours when it comes to custody and visitation. You want as much time with them as possible so that you can influence their lives and raise them to be happy and healthy.
At our Lawrenceville-based law firm, our child custody attorneys help parents obtain custody and visitation rights with their children. We can also assist you when you need to create a parenting plan, modify an existing custody or support order, exercise your rights as a father or terminate custody.
The Importance Of Parenting Plans
The state of Georgia requires that all child custody cases include a permanent parenting plan. Because your family is unique, you must have a unique parenting plan in place. We can help you create a comprehensive parenting plan to accommodate your family’s specific needs. A comprehensive parenting plan can help you and your ex co-parent circumvent future conflicts.
Can I Change My Custody Or Support Order?
If your life has changed significantly since the court issued your child custody or support order, you can petition to modify it. This means that you would appear in court and explain why the existing order is no longer adequate. There are several reasons to modify an existing order, such as:
- You or your child’s other parent is moving out of state
- The child is at least 11 years old and has expressed a preference to live with one parent
- The other parent is abusing drugs or alcohol
- There are credible allegations of child abuse
