San Diego Visitation Rights Attorneys

Are you looking for a San Diego child custody lawyer? The family law attorneys at Kraffert & Shaffer are dedicated to helping San Diego mothers and fathers who are dealing with child custody issues. Our attorneys will provide you with a free consultation so you can find out your legal rights.

When you decide to separate or divorce, many decisions must be made that will have a significant impact on your children. In California, child custody is based on the best interests of the child. If the two parties in a divorce cannot agree on a child custody arrangement, they will be ordered to mediation to try and resolve the issue. If your child custody dispute cannot be resolved through mediation, the court will issue a temporary child custody order based on the recommendations of the mediator. You and your spouse have a right to a child custody trial before the court will issue a final order. The Law Office of Kraffert & Shaffer is thoroughly familiar with California State family law regarding parenting and custody. With over 15 years combined experience, our San Diego family law attorneys have effectively represented hundreds of clients in divorces and other family law actions involving contested and agreed child custody cases. We understand that child custody cases often involve highly emotional conditions, and we specialize in providing intense but respectful representation. We will carefully review each case with the client and summarize its strengths and weaknesses. If you are thinking about filing a divorce, paternity, or other family law action that involves child custody, contact the attorneys of Kraffert & Shaffer today.

We can help resolve all types of legal custody and physical issues such as:

• Joint custody
• Sole custody
• Child relocations, move-aways
• Parenting plans and visitation rights
• Parenting plan modifications
• Child support enforcement and modifications
• Post-secondary support

In determining who will have primary physical custody of the children, one of the factors the court considers is which parent is more likely to allow frequent and continuing visitation (called parenting time) with the other parent. Our child custody attorneys work with you to develop a parenting plan that will allow both the parents and the children to adjust to the parents' separation. We also encourage parties to seek counseling for themselves and their children. At the Law Office of Kraffert & Shaffer, we are committed to guiding you through every step of a child custody action. We approach our cases with intensity and respect, and we recognize our responsibility not only to our clients, but also to promote and protect the best interests of children.
