Stamford, Connecticut, Child Custody Lawyer
Child custody is such an important aspect of divorce. At the Law Office of Yvette P. Fallon, a family law practice in Stamford, Connecticut, we can help you prepare a child custody and visitation agreement (known as a parenting plan in Connecticut) that best suits you and your child.
Child custody in Connecticut has two components: legal custody and primary residential custody. Legal custody allows you to participate in major decisions regarding your child's medical care, education, religion and other areas. In most divorces, legal custody is shared.
Residential custody determines where your child will primarily reside. In most cases, one parent will have primary residential custody and the other will have visitation (parenting time). In a typical parenting plan, the noncustodial parent will have the child weekly and during holidays, summer vacations, school vacations, birthdays and major holidays. Child custody lawyer Yvette Fallon drafts extremely detailed parenting plans. The more detailed a parenting plan, the less opportunity there will be for disputes to arise later.
