About Attorney Awards

Custody

Whether parents are married or not, Foster Swift's Family Law attorneys know how to guide families through the complicated Court system to establish or modify custody for one's children. This includes both legal custody (to address the important decisions in a child's life such as education, medical treatment, religious upbringing, etc.) and physical custody (caring for one or more children on a daily basis). Naturally, custody is a primary issue in a divorce involving minor children. Foster Swift Family Law attorneys represent men, women and minor children (when appointed a guardian ad litem) on parentage, legal custody, physical custody, visitation, child support, and parenting time matters.

Our experienced attorneys have the skills required for establishing paternity, crafting custody arrangements, litigating complex custody issues, and procuring the right experts needed to tailor solutions that reflect what is best for a child in a particular family.

REPRESENTATIVE EXPERIENCE

Negotiated custody and child support in the maximum amount of the guidelines
