Re: child custody
In a sole custody situation, that parent can make decisions for his/her child. With joint custody, both parents have equal say so, which can lead to problems when they cannot agree.
These are complex issues, and it is important that they be handled correctly. Therefore, it is important that you consult an experienced family law attorney to find out what options are available to you based on the facts of your particular case.
