Child custody and visitation issues are one of the most fact-intensive areas of Family Law

There are few issues closer to the heart than the well being of your child. And, there are arguably fewer issues more important than ensuring that your child’s future and best interests are secured.

Often in a divorce or other family law dispute, each parent believes that they are the best custodian of a child. There may even be a dispute as to what is the appropriate visitation terms and schedule for a non custodial parent. The court must consider a variety of factors to devise custody and/or visitation arrangements that it considers is in the “best interests” of a child. The facts in your case and your attorney’s ability to convey them are critical.

Every detail is important. Every case and client is unique. Attorney William R. F. Conners will invest the effort to understand the crucial facts of your case and convey them in a manner necessary to protect your child custody and visitation rights.
