I highly recommend!
I started working with The Law Firm of Victoria in 2011. Erin Ellis was my attorney, and she’s been by my side since then. Nothing about my situation was easy, and I always had her support, as well as other attorneys helping during a change of domicile trial. Those are rarely granted, but mine was! I can truly say that my children and I would not be where we are today without the support of The Law Firm of Victoria. I highly recommend!

Yes, custody arrangements can be modified if there is a significant change in circumstances that affects the child's best interests. A formal request to modify the custody order must be filed with the court, which will assess the proposed changes and decide if they benefit the child.
Do children have a say in custody decisions?
Children's preferences may be considered by the court, depending on their age and maturity level. While a child's opinion is taken into account, it is not the sole factor in deciding custody. The court prioritizes the child's best interests above all when making decisions.
How is custody determined?
Custody is determined by considering the best interests of the child. Factors may include the child's age, health, emotional ties with parents, parents' ability to care for the child, and the child's ties to home, school, and community. Courts aim to facilitate stability and continuity for the child.
What is joint custody?
Joint custody means both parents share responsibilities for their child. It includes joint physical custody, where the child lives with each parent for a period, and joint legal custody, where both parents share decision-making responsibilities. This arrangement requires cooperation and communication between the parents.
