Child Custody & Visitation

New Orleans Lawyers Solving Child Custody Disputes

Visitation Agreements · Sole or Shared Custody · Paternity Issues

In Louisiana divorce cases, both parents are considered joint guardians of any child born of the marriage. As a general rule, both the father and the mother have an equal right to child custody. The family law team at the Colvin Law Firm represents parents in New Orleans and throughout southeastern Louisiana who need professional legal assistance in establishing a custody arrangement that is in the best interests of the child.

While this situation may appear simple and uncomplicated, determining the child’s living arrangements and the visitation rights of the noncustodial parent can often be the cause of tremendous dispute. For the protection of all involved in a child custody case, we strongly recommend that you consult an experienced and respected family law attorney. Contact us today to schedule a free consultation.
