Our client, a dedicated father, was fighting to keep equal custody of his three children. The mother opposed joint custody, claiming he was unfit due to his work schedule and argued that she was not working so she could keep the children more. We demonstrated the father’s consistent involvement in his children's lives, provided a parenting plan that accommodated his work hours, and presented evidence proving his ability to provide a stable, loving home. The court ruled in favor of keeping a 50/50 joint custody, ensuring the children maintained a strong relationship with both parents.

Our client sought primary physical custody of his child, while the opposing party attempted to obtain sole legal and sole physical custody with the intent to relocate the child—arguing that she should be granted custody simply because she was the mother.

After multiple hearings and several contested motions, we prevailed, ensuring that our client retained custody and equal parenting time, allowing him to remain a constant presence in his child’s life.
