Custody is not only about physical residence
A parenting arrangement may involve physical custody, visitation, communication and other responsibilities. The appropriate arrangement depends on the child’s circumstances and the orders made by the court.
Evidence and documents
School records, medical records, caregiving information, communications and other lawful evidence may become relevant where they genuinely help the court assess the child’s welfare.
Avoid using the child as a dispute tool
Parents should avoid manipulating or pressuring a child and should preserve relevant records without editing or fabricating them. Case strategy should remain focused on lawful evidence and the child’s welfare.
