Child Custody

At Van Horn & Friedman, we understand that child custody is one of the most sensitive aspects of family law. Your child’s well-being is our priority. Whether creating a parenting plan or resolving disputes, our experienced attorneys provide compassionate guidance and strong advocacy to help secure the best outcome for your family.

Is joint custody or sole custody right for you and your family? What are the differences? What are the advantages? What are the disadvantages? What is the best parenting time schedule for your family?

Custody matters are unique to each individual family and their specific needs. Our attorneys take the time to get to know you and your family in order to effectively assist you in obtaining the best possible outcome for your particular situation. While there are some occasions in which a trial may be necessary, we work with our clients, the other party, and his or her attorney, to maintain control and make the best decisions for our clients’ families whenever possible.

Van Horn & Friedman, P.C. represents all parties in custody and parental access proceedings in all Family Courts in the New York City Metropolitan Area, including Nassau and Suffolk Counties.
