Overview
Navigating child custody and visitation arrangements amidst divorce is undeniably one of the most emotionally taxing aspects a parent can face. At Boyd Collar Nolen Tuggle and Roddenbery, we recognize the immense pain and sensitivity involved in these matters, and we approach them with both empathy and a wealth of experience.
In Georgia, the cornerstone for custody determinations is the “best interest of the child” standard. This grants the court-wide discretion in deciding:
- Which parent assumes physical custody.
- The appropriate parenting time and visitation schedule for each parent.
- Each parent’s role in crucial decisions concerning the child’s well-being, education, health and religious upbringing.
While judges acknowledge that parents are best suited to determine these arrangements, disagreements can arise. In such cases, our attorneys are committed to advocating for your interests through hearings or trials on custody matters. Our goal is to always safeguard and promote the child’s best interests throughout the process.
