Who gets the custody of the child?

When it comes to divorce, there is nothing scarier than the prospect of losing the right of child custody. There is every possibility that a good plan is devised should you approach the right lawyer, however, the possibility of being on the losing side exists as well. If your former partner has refused to share custody, it is your right and you should take the matter up to the court through an attorney who can sort things out for you accordingly. There are quite a lot of ways you can win some points in your favor. Let us look at one such point.

Suppose a couple had decided to go their separate ways. While they agree upon everything, the part where the child custody comes in, both of you are opposite to each other. If your former partner has any habits of smoking, drinking, or worse, a history of drugs, it is a very good likelihood that you can gain the upper hand and settle the matter accordingly in the court of law. However, your attorney will need all the evidences to support this claim. If you have the required evidence or leads, you can discuss those with your attorney and find out what can be done in order to come up with a solid case.

After due discussion, your attorney will file for the complete child custody. The court will examine the case on merits and take into account the evidences that have been submitted. Once the court has decided on a verdict, it will be delivered. 

Upon successful case, you will walk away with the custody of your child. The state will always ensure that it takes into account each evidence and that it decides whatever is in the best interest of the child.
