Facts About Changing Your Child Custody and Visitation Order

FACTS ABOUT CUSTODY & VISITATION

"The only thing that is constant is change itself." This wisdom has been quoted since the days of the Greek philosophers. Since change occurs continuously, especially in family law situations, a parent or legal guardian of a child may find him or herself involved in a case to modify custody or visitation.

The custody and visitation attorneys at the Kalish Law Office in The Woodlands, Texas are skilled in evaluating changing circumstances in custody and visitation cases.

A modification can be sought when there is a significant change in the circumstances of the child or one of the parties. Some examples of a change in circumstance: include;

- one parent moves far away

- one parent begins to engage in a lifestyle that is detrimental to the health or safety of a child,

-a possible change in primary residence from one parent's house to the other

-work or travel schedules of the parents change,

-the emotional, psychological, physical or social needs of the child change.

Situations involving the health and safety of a child may require immediate action and emergency intervention by a court. The custody and visitation attorneys at the Kalish Law Office have experience with emergency hearings, and can explain the law and explain what you can realistically expect if you are involved in a modification case.

The Kalish Law Office attorneys have experience with the negotiation of custody and visitation cases, attending mediation in modification cases, and have the necessary skill and experience to take family law cases to trial. Family law attorneys Bob Kalish and Sio Ramirez Pitre are available to listen, explain and advise clients on how to handle these difficult life decisions.
