FAQ
Mothers historically have won more custody battles due to traditional roles and perceptions of mothers as the primary caregivers. However, this trend is changing as courts increasingly focus on the best interests of the child, considering many factors beyond traditional roles.
However as long as both parents are mutual agreement, and there is no concern for the child's safety, then yes a notarized custody agreement reached between both parents would generally be honored by the Family Court.
When one parent refuses to or is incapable of co-parenting with the other parent, it could be grounds for sole custody. Both parents are expected to communicate and cooperate with each other to make decisions for their child, without allowing their personal conflicts to get in the way.
Generally, in most US states, including California, you don't need a lawyer to start a custody case. This is because you have the right of self-representation in court. You may agree if you and your ex-partner are willing to work out your differences.
A 50/50 parenting schedule could be arranged in many ways, such as: Biweekly rotation - One week with one parent, and one week with the other parent. 2-2-5-5 rotation - Two days with one parent, and two days with the other parent. Then, five days back with the first parent, and five days with the other parent.
A 70/30 child custody schedule grants the primary custodial parent significantly more time (70%) with the child than the other parent gets (30%). It also allows both adults to be involved with their child's life while minimizing how often a child must move from one parent's home to the other's residence.
Up to that point, however, the situation is more complex, as there is no set age at which a child can refuse visitation. Obviously, the court may take action to enforce a visitation order when one parent is interfering with the visitation rights of the other.
Topics to include in your parenting plan. A parenting plan should address daily activities, long-term plans, and how parents will make future childcare decisions. A strong plan contains specifics, reflects long-term thinking, and prioritizes the child's best interest.
