Child Custody & Visitation
Helping You Solve Your Custody & Visitation Challenges
Child custody and visitation are among the red flag issues in any divorce, forums in which both sides of a divorce question can flash anger and seek revenge.
The big losers, of course, are the children themselves. Which is why our state of California so values a factor known as the “best interest of the child” in determining levels of custody and visitation, and for how long, and with whom.
At our experienced family law firm in Torrance, the Law Office of Stuart E. Bruers, we have mediated this phase of divorce, sought consensus and litigated aggressively on behalf of many California clients in more than 30 years of practice, from Los Angeles County to the South Bay.
We listen to you intently, remain receptive to your wishes throughout the legal process and stay available for any questions or concerns you might have. We will work hard for your right to have access to your child or children.
When wrangling over child custody and visitation issues jeopardizes the progress of your divorce, or if sudden changes in your life call for modifications of them, contact our family law office in Torrance today. We have flexible meeting schedules and can arrange for Spanish language interpretation.
Committed to Professional Child Custody & Visitation Representation
For over the past 30 years, our firm has successfully addressed child custody and visitation issues such as:
- Living arrangements
- Parental decision-making: schooling, faith, religion, medical care and financial considerations
- “Best interests of the child”
- Parental relocation matters
- Divorce mediation
- Custody and visitation litigation
- Custody modifications
Only by carefully listening to you, on all facets of custody and visitation, can we help pinpoint your objectives for formulating joint or sole custody arrangements without losing sight of the importance of the child’s wishes and best interests.
We handle parental relocation matters as well. If you are in need of post-judgment modifications due to a former spouse’s long-distance relocation, we will do everything we can to mediate or negotiate an outcome amenable to all, without the length and costs of litigation.
We also offer minor counsel services, representing children during visitation and custody proceedings. Regardless of your child’s age, it is important that their voice is heard. As a minor’s counsel, we prioritize the child’s best interests above all else. We carefully interview the child, assess their needs and preferences, and communicate to the court on their behalf.
Whatever the variation on the custody and visitation theme, we have the experience, legal and people skills and personal commitment to you to get the job done. That has been the story of our legal leadership for over 30 years. Contact us today for your free consultation.
