Client Review for Hauser Family Law
Child custody
Child custody will always be based on the well-being of the child and sometimes these decisions are extremely difficult for parents to make.
The best interest of a child is decided based on the ensuing circumstances:
- The child’s age, gender, mental and physical health
- Physical and mental well-being of parents
- Lifestyle and social elements
- Love and emotional connections between parent and child
- Parents’ capacity to produce food, shelter, clothing and medical care
- Quality of schools in the area
- Child’s inclination if over age 12
- Ability and willingness of parent to support a good relationship between child and another parent
- Environmental stability
Types of custody arrangements
- Legal custody: The right and responsibility to make decisions about child rearing. This involves education, religion, medical care and punishment. When given joint legal custody, parents share these privileges.
- Physical custody: The ability of a parent to have a child with him or her. Most courts order joint physical custody, though the time-split is often different than 50/50.
- Sole custody: Sole custody settlements provide one parent with total custody privileges and allow the other only visitation rights.
- Joint custody: This custody permits parents to coordinate their schedules and share decision-making responsibility.
- Bird’s nest custody: This happens when the child stays in one home and parents interchange in and out of the home and take turns caring for the child.

Child support
Child support is a prearranged amount of money that is normally paid monthly to the spouse who holds primary custody of the child. Child support is planned for basic necessities like food, housing and clothing, health insurance medical care and educational expenses. Child support is decided based on each parent’s monthly income and costs. Centered on this financial evidence and the amount of time each parent devotes to the child, the court uses a formula to decide on child support.
Family law mediation
Family law mediation is used to resolve family conflicts. With family mediation, a neutral third party mediator helps two parties to reduce their differences as they reach a settlement. Family mediation can save the parties’ time and expenditures associated with the trial, but the conclusions may not be legally necessary.
