California Law on Child Custody and Visitation
California law uses two important legal concepts to talk about child custody. Legal custody is your ability to make important life decisions for your child. These include where your child will attend school, the religious training he/she will receive and whether or not she/he will get elective surgery. Physical custody is the term courts use to describe where your child will physically live.
Courts in California encourage contact with each parent, knowing that both parents are important to the life of a child. However, based on the facts of your case, the court may determine that time with one parent should be reduced.
This is why it is important to have a strong and effective legal advocate by your side in family court. At Milligan, Beswick, Levine & Knox LLP we never hesitate to protect our clients' child custody and visitation rights. Our lawyers use years of experience and an in-depth knowledge of California family law to strive for the best possible results — this is true at the time of your divorce or if circumstances change, like when a custodial parent wants to move away from the state of California.
