Child Focused Approach
Our primary focus is always on the best interests of the child. We assess the factors that contribute to the child's overall welfare, such as their safety, stability, and developmental needs. By taking a child-focused approach, we aim to ensure that custody and visitation arrangements prioritize the child's happiness, security, and healthy development.
Comprehensive Assessment Process
Our evaluations involve a thorough assessment of various factors that impact child custody and visitation arrangements. We take a Child Focused approach and utilize a variety of evaluation methods to gather comprehensive information. This includes conducting interviews with the parents, children, and any relevant individuals involved in the child's life. We also observe parent-child interactions and may consult with professionals, such as teachers or therapists, to gain a comprehensive understanding of the child's needs and the parental dynamics.

Some of our considerations include:

  • Child's emotional and physical well-being
  • The parenting capabilities of each parent
  • The quality of the parent-child relationship
  • Any special needs or circumstances that may require specific attention
