What will the court consider in awarding custody, partial visitation and visitation?
The basis in which courts award custody is often complicated. They take into account numerous factors in deciding custody and consider all relevant factors that could affect a child’s well being. Who the primary caretaker has been, where would siblings be raised together, the fitness of the parents and past misconduct and mental illness of the parents are just some of the factors used.
