Child Custody

At Toomey Law Practice, we understand that child custody matters are among the most sensitive and critical issues in family law. Determining where a child will live and how decisions about their upbringing will be made can have a profound impact on their well-being and your relationship with them. Our goal is to help you achieve a custody arrangement that serves your child’s best interests while protecting your parental rights.

Child custody encompasses two primary types: legal custody and physical custody. Legal custody refers to the right to make important decisions about a child’s education, healthcare, and religious upbringing. Physical custody pertains to where the child will reside. These can be awarded jointly or solely, depending on what is deemed most appropriate for the child’s needs.

We work closely with you to develop a custody plan that promotes stability and fosters a nurturing environment for your child. Whether through negotiation or litigation, we advocate for arrangements that reflect your child’s best interests and your parental role.

Our approach combines legal expertise with empathy, ensuring that you remain informed and supported throughout the process. Let us guide you through this challenging time and help you secure a custody arrangement that prioritizes your child’s happiness and well-being.
