Child Custody Attorney in Newark, NJ

Child Custody Overview

Most parents want the best for their children, even when they are unable to stay in a relationship with one another. Unfortunately, separation and divorce can be tricky issues, and an amicable agreement can quickly turn sour. Other factors, like new relationships, the desire to move to a different geographical location, financial difficulties, abuse or domestic violence, can also impact child custody arrangements.

In New Jersey, the court believes that the best interest of the child(ren) should govern decisions made regarding child custody. An arrangement should be one that facilitates open communication between parents and other people who play an important and meaningful role in the life of the child(ren).

As an experienced and dedicated New Jersey child custody lawyer, I, Gwendolyn O. Austin, can help you in working out a visitation schedule, modifying an arrangement or negotiating a parenting plan that serves your needs and those of your child(ren).

I understand how letting a court decide what is in the best interest of your child can seem intrusive. If both you and the other parent have an affable relationship and are able to make decisions with one another, I can assist you with the legal issues that need to be addressed in order to formalize your parenting arrangement.
