Child Custody
 

In all child custody cases, the primary goal of the court is to vigilantly protect the best interests of the child.  In order to determine the best interests of the child, the court will evaluate each parent's ability to provide satisfactory care and security.  The court will also consider a variety of factors before awarding custody to one or both parents.  Some of these factors include:

  • The quality of care offered by each parent  for a healthy moral environment
  • Which parent the child is residing with and duration of that arrangement
  • Which parent the child prefers to live with
  • The financial status of each parent and living conditions of their home
  • All incidents of domestic abuse, if any
  • Whether the child will be separated from siblings
  • The ability of each parent to provide proper healthcare
  • The willingness of each parent to accommodate the custody arrangement and cooperate with the other parent
  • The religious involvement of each parent
