Is Child Custody Worked Out In Divorce, Or Do We File A Separate Family Court Petition?

New York requires that child custody matters be worked out as part of the divorce settlement.

If you and your spouse are lucky enough to still be able to talk through the relevant issues, you’ll want to develop a formal agreement in the short term so that you and your kids will know what to expect as the divorce proceeds.

If your divorce is more contentious, the attorneys at Friedman & Ranzenhofer can help you finalize custody, visitation, and support arrangements in a way that protects your kids.

If the agreement stops meeting your needs, or either parent stops complying after the divorce is complete, we can help you work through Family Court for modification or enforcement of custody agreements.
