One of the most important elements in a divorce proceeding is the issue of child custody. The most critical factor in deciding how to arrange custody is understanding what is best for the child(ren) and what will work for the family. Arrangements can be traditional or creative, as long as the child’s need are central to the decision. Most times, it will be necessary to enlist the assistance of a child custody expert/mediator.
