Serving You and the Best Interests of Your Children
Indiana child custody laws focus exclusively on preserving the best interests of the children. Most children benefit from a child custody arrangement that allows them to maintain a strong relationship with both parents. Therefore, unless there are concerns involving abuse or neglect, it is usually in the best interests of the children to arrange a child custody and visitation agreement that allocates parenting time to each parent.
Physical custody: Physical custody refers to the residence of the child. Although parents can share joint physical custody, one parent will usually be designated as having primary physical custody and the other parent will be allotted visitation time (parenting time).
Legal custody: Legal custody refers to a parent's authority and responsibility to make important decisions regarding the upbringing of the children, such as decisions affecting the child's health care, education, religion and other issues. Day-to-day decisions are usually handled by the parent with primary physical custody.
