Child Custody

Child Custody Lawyer

"We are a family that cares about families."

In California, the most important issue to consider in child custody and visitation cases is the "best interests" of the children. At Clark Law Office, Inc., we absolutely agree with that principle. However, what is in the best interests of a particular child may be in great dispute between the parents. One parent may think that it is in the child's best interests to never set foot in the other parent's house again. The other may feel that splitting the parents' time with the child equally is best.

Child Physical and Legal Custody and Visitation Factors

California law sets forth a set of factors for the courts to consider in determining what is in the best interests of the children. Our firm helps parents both in divorce and paternity cases to sort out custody and visitation issues. We work with child specialists and pay attention to custody studies. All of our experience demonstrates that it is seldom in the best interests of a child to be the subject of a custody battle. We try hard to help our clients understand this.

On the other hand, serving the best interests of the children may require trying a contested custody case. Especially in cases involving domestic violence, a parent may continue to try to have control over the other parent by unreasonably litigating custody. If this is the case, we will aggressively represent our client's parental rights.

We also handle child custody modification and enforcement cases as well as child support and alimony modification and enforcement cases.
