Maryland Divorce and Child Custody Representation
Creating a sustainable and healthy plan for child custody and visitation options often adds an even deeper level of complexity to an already emotionally charged situation. The practical and sustainable solutions that can work for you, the other parent of your children and your children may seem especially confusing by legal terminology and the conflict that already exists.
Most parents have spent years devising plans that already work for them, and while divorce adds a layer of difficulty, often the simplest answers are the best. At the Law Offices of Cynthia M. Lifson, we work to help you find and implement a workable, sustainable and healthy child custody plan that protects your parental rights and helps your children to adjust and flourish following the reorganization of the family.
Operating from offices in Towson and Columbia, our attorney offers the benefit of more than 15 years of proven family law and divorce experience to help guide clients across Central Maryland.
A Reasonable Approach in Child Custody Matters
When we begin the discussion of what child custody option would work best for your family, we start by reviewing what you believe the needs and interests are of your children and what has and has not worked in your family in the past. There are many factors that can and should be addressed in determining custody options, and while the law will use terms like joint and sole custody, we aim to help our clients devise an appropriate plan that fits the family's needs.
Our attorney will work with you to consider:
- The needs of your children;
- Current and previous arrangements to care for your children;
- What will work best for your children;
- Any health, educational, or religious health concerns;
- Safety concerns;
- Appropriate scheduling and access issues;
- Communicating with your children to explain separation and divorce.
We understand that it can be hard to be objective when it comes to doing what's right for our children. In divorce and child custody, we help you address what's important and take a reasonable and productive approach. We will fight for your parental rights when you need to be assertive, but we will place the greatest emphasis on helping you to achieve an agreement with the other parent of your child.
At the Law Office of Cynthia M. Lifson, we have not only represented moms and dads, but have received court appointments to represent children in highly contested custody cases. This experience enables our attorney to provide our clients with special insight in managing difficult cases.
