Child Custody and Visitation

Los Angeles Child Custody Lawyer

Nothing is more important than your children. At Stolar & Associates in Los Angeles, our attorneys have been focused on protecting the rights of parents and their relationships with their children for over twenty years. If you would like to discuss child custody or visitation rights with a lawyer from our firm please contact our L.A. office for a free consultation.

Child custody and divorce

When assigning joint or full custody to parents, the court will examine any agreement to see if it is in the best interests of the child. When negotiating a parenting plan for a temporary custody and visitation arrangement during your divorce or legal separation, and a permanent arrangement for joint or full custody, our attorneys will work with you to develop a strategy that will maximize your time with your child. We will then present a strong argument to the court supporting your position.

Rights of an unmarried parent

California law provides the same rights for single parents as for those who are married or divorced. Our Los Angeles child custody lawyers will see that as a single parent your right to custody and visitation is recognized by the court.

Protecting your child from an unfit parent

If your child's other parent is not a fit parent, our attorneys will help protect your child by asking the court to grant you full legal and physical custody, limit visitation, or terminate parental rights.

Post-decree modification

If there has been a significant change in circumstances since your divorce, our attorneys will help you in post-decree modification of your parenting plan.

Child custody is an emotionally challenging issue. Often both parents are anxious to spend as much time with their children as they can. By carefully listening to and articulating our client’s wishes during negotiations and litigation, our lawyers work to get the results you want.
