Frequently Asked Questions

What Are My Rights as a Mother in Chesterfield?

Mothers in Chesterfield are entitled to parental rights, which include custody, visitation, and decision-making regarding the child’s welfare. The court emphasizes the child's best interests but generally supports a mother’s active role in the child’s life. Our attorneys can provide detailed guidance on how these rights are applied locally, ensuring you are well-represented.

It is crucial for mothers to understand that their rights are not just confined to those stated but can be assertively extended through legal representation that understands and supports their objectives. We assist in exploring all facets of your legal rights, helping to fortify your position whether you’re negotiating shared custody or pursuing sole custody arrangements due to safety concerns or other valid reasons. Every step we take is motivated by your goals for a happy, secure future for you and your children.

Can I Modify a Custody Agreement?

Yes, custody agreements can be modified if there is a substantial and continuing change in circumstances. Common reasons for modifying a custody agreement include changes in the child's needs, employment relocations, or shifts in the parents’ relationship dynamics. Demonstrating how circumstances have changed in a significant, ongoing, or potentially harmful manner since the last order can influence the court’s decision favorably. We are committed to understanding your evolving needs and presenting them effectively in a court setting, thereby advocating for solutions that best serve your family’s welfare.

What Should I Do If My Ex-Partner Violates the Custody Order?

If an ex-partner is not complying with a custody order, legal remedies are available. We recommend documenting any violations and consulting with our legal team to discuss enforcement options. We can support you in taking appropriate action to ensure compliance.

Enforcement actions may involve filing a motion with the court, and if necessary, pursuing contempt proceedings to compel adherence to the orders. These proceedings can result in a range of consequences for the violating party, including fines or changes to the custody arrangement. Our legal team meticulously prepares for such instances, ensuring that we present compelling evidence and arguments to the court to safeguard your rights and uphold your child’s best interests.
