Yes, the Court will take drug use into account in a custody case, and using drugs around the children can lead to a change of custody -- if you can prove she did it.

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.
