Child custody may be either joint or sole. In California, joint custody simply means that both parents will share in the responsibility to make choices concerning the health, education, and overall well-being of the child. The law states that no prior consultation between the parents is necessary only that in the event of an emergency, the other parent should be notified. If parents share join custody of their child, either parent can obtain school and health information.
My Fresno family law firm understands that custody of a child is one of the most challenging issues that face a couple looking to separate. We do our best to put the needs and rights of the child first. Joint custody is usually assumed to be in the child’s best interest in the state of California, though this means that if one party wants to later challenge the joint custody ruling it can be quite difficult.

I have more than 20 years of legal experience in divorce cases and I can help you navigate which choices are best for you and your child.
