Child Custody Attorneys in Sugar Land
Drafting & Modifying Visitation Schedules
Child custody and visitation are two of the most sensitive subjects involved in divorce or family law matters between two unmarried parents. The court typically seeks an agreement that encourages both parents to have an active role in the child's life whenever possible. If you and your spouse (or the other parent of your child) can agree on a custody and visitation schedule, you may be able to proceed uncontested. However, if you cannot agree on what's right, litigation will become necessary. Kersh Law Firm, P.C. is here to help you find the solution that meets your child's best interests.

What Is a Visitation Schedule?
Visitation is a complicated subject. In most cases, the parent who the child is not living with (the non-custodial parent) will have visitation rights and a schedule will need to be drawn up.
The topics that must be covered in a visitation or parenting plan include:
- How visits will take place
- How visitation may affect child support
- Where the child will go on holidays
- Where the child will go to school
Reaching an agreement is not always easy — sometimes it is not even an option.
