Custody and Parenting Plans

New York Family Lawyer Ensures that Clients’ Parenting Plans and Custody Needs are Met

Divorce can be a difficult experience, especially when children are concerned. Parenting Plans are preferred in the State of New York for divorcing couples with children; this is the way custody and visitation are most easily determined so that both parents are able to remain in contact with their children in a way that works for them. Dealing with custody is often the most contentious part of any divorce: for many parents, whether or not they will have enough time with their child is paramount.

The laws surrounding custody and parenting plans require that the parents have come to an agreement about how they will both share the responsibilities of the daily tasks that come with raising their children by creating a parenting plan. In order for that to happen in the way that serves your needs as a parent, you will need an experienced law firm to help you determine custody and design a parenting plan. Serving Westchester County, the Bronx, and Metropolitan New York, Attorney Mark F. Bernstein of Siriano and Bernstein has extensive experience helping families get through this hard time and make parenting plans that work for everyone: let him help you, too.

In dealing with the matter of child custody in the state of New York, the Court determines custody based on what it believes to be the best interests of the children. This takes into account such factors as each parent’s financial status and physical health, the child’s physical health and needs, and other basic components on raising a child well until that child turns 18. Attorney Bernstein prepares you thoroughly for this part of the court proceedings, working with you to make sure that you give the testimony and information that will get your needs as a parent met. Because determining custody can be extremely painful and potentially heartbreaking, it is crucial to have skilled and experienced New York attorney Mark F.
