Fathers’ & Mothers’ Rights in California
In California, both parents have an equal ability to seek custody and visitation. Though custody agreements tended to strongly favor mothers in the past, this is no longer the case. Today, every custody case is determined by each parent’s relationship with and ability to provide care for the child.
Ultimately, every court will consider custody claims on the basis of the child’s best interests. Whenever possible, judges prefer to award joint custody. Zimmerman Law Offices will demonstrate the importance of your relationship to your child to bolster your custody claim.
