Staunton, VA Child Custody Lawyers
Reliable counsel on parenting time issues
Child custody and visitation issues are often the most hotly contested aspects of a divorce. At Alleman Law Group, PLC we have years of experience successfully helping clients involved in child custody and visitation disputes.
Most people are unaware that there are two types of child custody in Virginia: legal custody and physical custody. Legal custody involves the decision-making process regarding the children, including such topics as religious upbringing, medical decisions, and education.
Physical custody is where the children will have their primary residence. Physical custody can be sole, and the child will live with just one parent, or joint, where both parents provide a residence for the child. Physical custody impacts child support since the parent who has primary custody receives payments from the non-custodial parent.
The child custody and visitation attorneys at Alleman Law Group employ a unique approach to our family law practice. That team approach takes advantage of the combined experience and diverse backgrounds of all our attorneys, drawing on more than 25 years of legal experience handling child custody and child visitation matters.
