Child Custody-Visitation

Phoenix Child Custody and Visitation Attorneys

Too often, children are placed in the middle of a divorce dispute. As your attorneys, we can play an important role, not only in handing your divorce but also assisting you in positive interactions with and communications the other party and with your children.

At DeShon Pullen & Associates, most of our attorneys and staff are working parents who place a high importance on children and families. Few things are more important to us than helping our clients maintain healthy relationships with their children when those relationships are threatened by divorce.

Parents often describe the loss of contact with a child as the worst consequence of divorce. Unless there are compelling reasons not to, our attorneys aggressively seek to preserve a healthy and ongoing relationship between children and both parents following a divorce.

Parents often disagree about which parent should have primary physical custody of the children and how much time the children should spend with each of the parents. Our child custody and visitation lawyers will help you create a parenting plan that assures you meaningful contact with your children and also minimizes future conflicts with the other party.

If you are involved in a high conflict custody battle and joint decision making is simply not possible, we will aggressively represent your interests. While we believe a collaborative approach is best for everyone, we realize that a collaborative approach will only work if both parties are able to work together. If the other parent is unreasonable and refuses to agree to custody and parenting time that is in the best interest of your children, we are prepared to fight to protect your interest. Visitation may affect child support payments, so you should consult an experienced family law and divorce attorney prior to entering into a parenting plan.
