How Do I Ensure I Get Custody?

Question of the Day:

Married for almost 12 years. Want a divorce. How can I ensure getting custody of our children? – Judy

Answer:

Judy: Custody is more complex than just a word. It involves long term and short term parenting decisions, primary residence and timesharing. It may also affect what happens to the marital residence as well as support. The best way to ensure the result you want on all these issues is to agree on a parenting plan with your spouse. Otherwise, a judge is going to decide and there is no way to ensure or predict that result.
