Child Custody

Child Custody Attorney Riverside, California 

Child Custody issues can be heart-wrenching and very divisive; the advice and counsel of an experienced attorney can be invaluable. In California, mediation is mandatory in cases of disputed Child Custody or visitation determinations, with the goal of protecting children from acrimonious litigation. As a Riverside County law firm, our role is to prepare our clients for mediation in order to best represent their own interests and those of their children.

Generally, there are two types of custody: Legal and Physical. Legal Custody involves responsibility for major decisions that affect the children's lives, such as academic, religious and healthcare. Physical Custody determines where the children reside and what Visitation rights, if any, are awarded. At the Riverside County law offices of Holstrom, Steinberg & Associates we have extensive experience helping clients resolve custody disputes, resulting in or from agreements for joint custody, split custody, or sole custody. Some common terms such as "primary," "secondary," "50/50," or "equal" custody terms may also be used to describe Child Custody orders or agreements. Child Custody arrangements have financial ramifications, and they affect Child Support determinations. Please see our page on Child Support for more information on this matter.

We offer fair, effective, and aggressive representation designed to serve the best interests of children and to protect our clients. If you are concerned about your children's well-being as a result of a custody or Visitation dispute, we invite you to contact the law firm of Holstrom, Steinberg & Associates immediately to protect both your children's, and your rights.
