Boston Child Custody, Support and Visitation Attorneys
Perhaps the most difficult challenge in a divorce involves what to do about the children. Who gets custody? How do we continue to support them? What happens as our lives change?

When they cannot, the courts must intervene and make decisions that are in the best interests of the children.

We will help you make the sound decisions that affect everyone's lives moving forward. Contact us for experienced and compassionate help with divorce and related custody and child support matters.
Child Custody and Visitation
Child custody can be the most important issue in a divorce proceeding. Custody includes both the legal and physical custody. Barring extreme circumstances, both parents generally receive joint legal custody of their children, giving both equal rights to make decisions affecting their children's lives, including:
- Education
- Heath and medical care
- Child care and daily needs
- Relocations
Physical custody, or where the children live, can be more controversial. Protecting your rights as a parent is just as important as the interests of your children. We provide the insight and advice you need in custody, support and other divorce concerns.
