Parenting time and parental decision making affect the entire family for years and have a tremendous impact on the emotional stability of the children. Experienced legal representation is essential to protect and preserve your rights and the rights of your children.
Protecting What Matters Most
In Colorado, child custody is addressed through two key concepts: parenting time (the schedule determining when your children are with each parent) and parental decision-making responsibility (who makes major decisions about your children's education, healthcare, religion, and extracurricular activities).
Courts make custody determinations based on the best interests of the child, considering factors such as the wishes of the parents and child, the child's adjustment to home, school, and community, and the mental and physical health of all individuals involved.
