One of the most popular questions that we receive from our clients is how custody and parenting time is decided by a judge. That answer is not easy to give because custody and parenting time is not a one size fits all solution. Custody and parenting time is a very specific fact-based situation for each specific family that comes through our door and that has the opportunity to have these issues in front of a judge. Obviously, there are custodial factors 9:2-4 sets out all factors that a court has to consider when determining what good custody and parenting time decision is going to be. There are also usually experts involved in these determinations.
The court has mental health professionals there can be a guardian at Litem for the children. But custody and parenting time do not file your papers, look at them, a judge reviews them, go to the court once, a decision is made. The court really cares about what is in the best interest of the children, that is generally the overriding standard that the court considers when assessing custody and parenting time decisions and the court has to take into consideration what the best interests are for those specific children or child and that specific family in each particular circumstance. It is very important that if you have a custody and parenting time decision at least speak to an attorney prior to going to court because you need to understand the nuances involved in the arena where custody and parenting time is involved.
