San Bernardino Child Custody and Visitation LawyerAt the Law Offices of Frank J. Prainito, we keep your child's best interests at the forefront of our strategy throughout your case. Whether you are involved in a divorce or are seeking a parenting order outside of a divorce context, the issues are the same. The purpose of child custody and visitation arrangements, which in California are called "parenting orders," is to promote your children's best interests. To accomplish that, the courts can consider many factors, such as health and safety, preservation of relationships with each parent, family traditions and culture, a stable home life, and other loving relationships the child has. There is no set rule as to which parent must be the primary care giver. Meet with a lawyer before working out an agreement or participating in mediation on your own.
