What Should I Do If My Spouse Has Filed For Divorce?

It is essential to contact our team of attorneys as soon as possible to protect your legal rights upon the filing for divorce. Our lawyers can provide you with expert advice and guidance during this process.

What Is The Difference Between Legal And Physical Custody?

Legal custody refers to the responsibility of making vital decisions for your child(ren), such as their medical, educational, and religious choices. Physical custody dictates when your child(ren) is under your supervision.

How Does The Court Determine Which Parent Has Custody?

In Pennsylvania, the primary objective of the courts is to ascertain what is in the best interest of the child considering 16 factors listed in 23 Pa.C.S. 5328. To effectively navigate these factors, an experienced attorney is crucial when it comes to child custody cases. It is important to have a professional who can provide guidance and ensure all the necessary factors are considered to reach a fair and just outcome for the child.

Can A Grandparent Be Awarded Custody?

In Pennsylvania, there have been notable modifications to grandparents’ rights. Our reputable legal team has successfully advocated for grandparents in Allegheny County and even the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania. Our unwavering commitment to our clients has resulted in outcomes that prioritize the well-being of their grandchildren.

If I Have Joint Custody, Do I Have To Pay Support?

The amount of child support is determined by the income of the child’s parents. Joint custody does not exempt you from paying or receiving child support.
