Have your children been taken away from you during your divorce proceedings? Are you fighting for custody of your children?
In most cases, a mother is awarded custody of her children unless the mother has serious issues, such as:
· A negative history of parenting
· Mental impairment
· Drug or alcohol addiction
However, today, it is commonplace for the father to seek custody or joint custody of his children. This, of course, is partly due to the fact that many men have the ability to work from home due to the advances of the computer and Internet.
In determining a mother’s rights, the age of the child is important. Children under the age of two years old are almost never taken from their mother.
If you want to protect your children and win custody, it is important to contact an experienced Orange County Family Law attorney who is ready to fight for your rights as a mother.
