Re: Custody?

Custody is decided by the court using the standard of what is in the best interests of the child.

The points you mention should be helpful to your case, but I cannot evaluate them out of context.

There are many other factors. If you wish to discuss this with me privately, please call me to schedule a confidential consultation.

I practice in NYC and Long Island.
