Understanding the Child Custody Process
Most people who are working through a custody battle do not know what to expect from the process. We work with our clients to explain what happens at every step of the process, including:
- Explaining the cost and financial obligations of a child custody battle
- Determining who the guardian ad litem is
- Taking MMPI, drug and psychological tests
- Determining the court dates
We review the court orders, the specific facts of your case, and help our clients determine if they would be better served going to court, trying mediation, or seeking the modification of an existing court order.
Regardless of where you are in the process, we can work to protect your rights throughout the child custody battle. Schedule your initial consultation with an experienced lawyer by contacting us online or by calling 219-791-1200.
