Child Custody

Resolving Child Custody Disputes

Labels often become a focus in child custody disputes. These labels include legal and physical custody, whether sole or joint. This is unfortunate.

At the Law Offices of Richard D. Goff, our lawyers look beyond labels. We work with our clients to focus on what really matters: developing a parenting plan that works, a plan that serves the needs of the child.

Contact us today to discuss your child custody case. Our attorneys provide representation to clients in Minneapolis and the surrounding parts of Minnesota.

Creating Effective Parenting Plans

A plan can be very structured, going as far as laying out exact timelines. A plan can also be extremely loose, offering more flexibility to both parents. Most fall somewhere in between.

We work directly with clients to understand their needs and to customize legal strategies based on those needs. After we determine the ideal child custody arrangements, we will move forward. If we can come to an agreement in an uncontested manner, we believe that is favorable. If a trip to the courtroom is necessary, we are capable of presenting the facts in a manner designed to get the desired results.

The Relationship Between Child Custody and Other Aspects of Divorce

Child custody and the other aspects of divorce are interrelated. They cannot truly be separated. For example, child support has a close relationship to child custody, as it is based on parenting time to a certain extent.

As we move forward with each case, we take great care to look at the whole picture. We keep issues in balance, striving to obtain results that our in our clients' best interests overall.

Our law firm brings more than 40 years of experience to every child custody case we handle. Contact us today.
