Compassionate Support Through Child Custody

As parents, we always want what’s best for our kids. But sometimes, that can be difficult to achieve, especially when divorce and custody disagreements are involved. Child custody is often the most important and complicated issue people face during their divorce proceedings.

At Stagnaro Hannigan Koop, we want to help you find solutions that work for your family, and keep your kids healthy and happy. We’ve helped families throughout Cincinnati navigate custody and create effective child custody plans with compassion at the forefront.

How Is Custody Determined?

In a litigated divorce, the courts are usually involved in child custody decisions. The courts make their ruling based on the best interests of your child. This commonly involves considering factors such as:

• The physical and mental wellness of each parent
• The condition of the home
• Location of each parent
• The relationship between each parent and child
• History of cooperation of each parent
• Your child’s wishes

A member of our team can help you figure out these factors and advocate for you in court if necessary.

However, in a mediated or collaborative divorce, the custody plans can be left to the parents. In these cases, our team of family lawyers has valuable experience helping parents create custody plans that fit their needs and suit their children’s happiness and health.

Finding Solutions That Work For Kids

When your kids are the center of your world, you want to make sure everything works for them. But finding a custody plan that’s effective and in your kids’ best interests can be challenging. That’s why creativity and experience are two of our team’s guiding principles. We understand child custody and we have experience to inform us, but we also pride ourselves in our innovative mindsets that can help you create an effective plan.

Custody involves many factors and it’s crucial to be thorough during this part of divorce. We can help you create a plan that covers all your bases including:

• Visitation schedules
• Parenting decisions (schooling, medical care, religious decisions etc.)
• Vacation and holiday time
• Any necessary child support and child support agreements
• Legal vs. Physical custody
• All the details (transportation, extracurriculars, communication preferences etc.)

These plans are the building blocks of your child’s future. At Stagnaro Hannigan Koop we understand that. And it’s why our goal is always to help families succeed, starting with a solid custody plan.
