Overview
Working out a fair and realistic custody agreement is one of the most difficult tasks for parents going through a divorce or separation. Child Custody is the only book to show separating or divorcing parents how to overcome obstacles and build their own win-win custody agreements.Drawing on her experience as a professional mediator, author Mimi Lyster sets out 40 issues separating parents typically face and presents a range of available options to resolve them.
She walks you through all the factors you must consider, including:
* medical care
* education
* religious training
* living arrangements
* holidays
* money issues
* dealing with changes in an existing agreement
Lyster then shows you how to make decisions everyone—especially the children—can live with.
Child Custody includes checklists and worksheets to make it easy to put together a comprehensive agreement. It also covers custody law in all 50 states and includes fill-in-the-blank custody agreement.
