When a child’s parents don’t live together, a formal custody agreement is the best way to ensure the wellbeing of the child, as well as to protect the rights of both parents. Child custody agreements determine who has physical custody of the child, as well as who will be in charge of making important decisions on the child’s behalf.
Breeze, Westhoff, Nguyen & Elpers, LC is here to help you with all issues related to child custody in Missouri.
Child custody cases may be initiated by either of a child’s parents. In cases where the identity of the father isn’t already established, paternity proceedings may be required before the case can progress. Once paternity has been established, the court will make child custody and visitation determinations based on the child’s best interests.
Our firm has handled countless child custody cases in Jefferson County, Ste. Genevieve County, and St. Francoise County. Whether you are petitioning the court to establish a new custody agreement or you want to make changes to an existing agreement, we will do our best to help you accomplish your goals.
