Virginia Beach Divorce Lawyer
Child Custody and Visitation Rights
Child custody and visitation are two of the most difficult issues to deal with in any divorce. You must handle these matters with a great deal of care in order to help avoid the negative consequences that a nasty divorce can have on your child or children. By consulting and working with a compassionate and experienced family law attorney as soon as possible, you have the chance to reach a better outcome with the least amount of stress.
Child custody disputes in Virginia are usually resolved by the court following a full hearing if there is no agreement. This can be expensive and time consuming - for all parties involved. The court will make a decision based upon evidence involving the child's needs and the parent's abilities to provide a safe and loving environment, culminating in the "best interests of the child." Attorney Keri A. Markiewicz can work to represent your interests in your custody or visitation dispute. By helping the court to see your side of the story and how your custody or visitation will benefit your child or children, Attorney Keri A. Markiewicz can effectively work towards a more desirable resolution. All of this, when handled delicately and zealously, can be done while resulting in the least amount of emotional distress for your child or children.
