Allocation of Parental Responsibilities
The heart of this new term is basically to get rid of terms such as “custody” and “visitation. As a result, parental responsibilities can be broken down in parenting time and decision making. When it comes to these sensitive areas of Colorado family law, our experience lawyers will get involved with child family investigators and other experts.
Parenting time
Colorado child custody laws have excluded the word “custody.” Instead, Colorado child custody lawyers refer to the old “custody” term as parenting time and decision making.
Colorado family law decides “custody” cases on what is in best interest of the child. This is what is most important when looking at how Colorado decides custody matters. Our Denver child custody lawyers will make this a priority in your case. We do not litigate a custody case by showing that the other spouse is not fit to be a parent. These disparaging comments gets you nowhere is a Colorado family court.
Decision Making
This part of a Colorado child custody laws focuses on important decisions in the child’s life including:
· Religion
· Children’s school
· Medical decisions
Our Denver child custody attorneys will fight for your rights in this phase of litigation. We first adopt the approach that both parents should have a say in decision making for all issues. However, in the heat of divorce, this does not always happen. Therefore, our firm will then move to analyze which parent is the one to make wise decisions for the children.
