NYC Divorce Attorney Juan Luciano Explains Joint Physical Custody in New York

Nov 18, 2022

November 18, 2022 - /PressAdvantage/ - NYC divorce attorney Juan Luciano (https://divorcelawfirmnyc.com/what-is-joint-physical-custody-in-new-york/) releases a new article explaining joint physical custody. The lawyer mentions that child custody is one of the most important decisions a couple can address. In a divorce process, child custody is often one of the most disagreed upon issues. Family law attorneys are usually hired to help navigate this matter to ensure the best interests of the children.

According to the NYC divorce attorney, “In New York, there is no legal presumption that child custody will be split evenly between parents. Especially when the courts become involved, they will consider many factors before determining custody. This is why parents should understand their custody rights and arrangements and get on the same page as much as possible to maintain control of where they want their children to live and how they want their children raised.”

The lawyer mentions that physical custody determines where a child will legally live. Joint physical custody sets out that the children will move between parents’ homes, but it is not necessarily a 50/50 split between homes. Joint physical custody usually depends on what is the most convenient for both parties.

Attorney Juan Luciano adds that joint physical custody helps a couple straighten out custody arrangements and makes it easier for the whole family. It is important for partners to spell out the child custody matters as accurately as possible to avoid confusion for the children and misunderstandings between the parents.

“As in all matters of child custody, the court’s main objective is the best interests of the children, not the two marital partners. In a perfect world, equal joint physical custody would allow both parents a balanced living arrangement, but once the courts get involved, they will look closely at both parents to determine what they feel is best for the children. This means that one parent may be given considerably more legal and physical custody of the children than they would have liked,” says the family law attorney.

Lastly, the lawyer emphasizes the importance of having a skilled divorce attorney when it comes to matters such as child custody. Having an experienced lawyer may be able to help the client understand their rights and responsibilities in a divorce case, and may be able to help them receive a favorable income.

The public holiday honours Wenceslas, the 10th century ruler later venerated as the patron saint of the Czech lands and the “Good King Wenceslas” of the familiar Christmas carol. Wenceslas (Václav in Czech) was born around 907 and became ruler of Bohemia as a teenager. Raised as a Christian, he promoted Christianity – then relatively new to...
