  • Legal Custody & Physical Custody

  • Types of Legal Custody (Joint or Sole)

    Joint Legal Custody is standard. Sole Legal Custody is rare. Courts only grant it when there is strong evidence that joint decision-making would put the child/ren at risk — such as abuse, neglect, serious substance abuse, or a parent who is clearly unsafe or unable to act in the child/ren’s best interest.

  • Check the Type of Legal Custody That Applies: (Choose One
  • Types of Physical Custody (Joint, Primary, or Sole)

    Types of Physical Custody (Joint, Primary, or Sole)

    Joint Physical Custody means the child spends significant, frequent time with both Parents. The schedule does not have to be 50/50, but each Parent must have substantial, meaningful time. Primary Physical Custody means the child lives with one Parent (Primary) most of the time, and the other Parent has scheduled visitation. The Primary Parent handles the majority of daily care. Sole Physical Custody is rare and only ordered when the other Parent is unfit or poses a risk to the child. The child lives exclusively with one Parent and the other Parent may have supervised visits or no visits, depending on safety concerns.
