Maintaining your relationship with your children after the end of your marriage is a critical issue for any parent.

The Young Firm in Marietta, Georgia, offers skilled legal representation to help you secure your rights as a parent. Our Marietta child custody attorney has decades of experience helping families preserve the parent-child bond after divorce.
Legal and Physical Custody
Child custody has two components that need to be determined:
- Legal Custody — The right to make decisions regarding religion, education and health care among other topics regarding the raising of your children.
- Physical custody — Establishing where the child calls home.
Both types of custody can be divided in a number of ways. Parents may be granted joint, sole or shared custody in either category.
How Relocation Effects Child Custody and Visitation
If a parent is considering moving far enough away that the move will have an impact on the current custody and visitation arrangement, the other parent can object to the move in court and ask that custody be changed. If the other parent is not in favor of the move, a hearing can be scheduled before the court to secure a ruling and amend the custody and visitation agreement.
