If you are a party to a family breakup (divorce, dissolution, legal separation, end of a nonmarriage relationship) that involves minor children, you understand the emotional issues involved in decisions about child custody and visitation.

Protecting Children During The Divorce Process

Under Ohio law, the best interests of minor children must be the primary concern when custody and visitation plans are established. We work closely with men and women to employ a practical approach to parental rights – child visitation and custody – helping parents focus on the needs of their children.

Often, that involves working with parents to help them see custody and visitation issues from the perspective of their children. This means getting mothers and fathers to recognize that custody and visitation are more about the child’s time with the parent than the parent’s time with the child. This approach allows for more flexibility as the children grow up and priorities change.
