How do colorado courts decide custody matters?
When you file a custody action in Colorado, courts use the best interest of the child standard to rule on children matters. A decision will be made as to what best suits the child. Parents sometimes believe that the battle is who is the better parent. Although this is paramount, there are other factors to be considered. This is why you need sound and skilled child custody lawyers that understand how the law works.
Can unmarried parents file for custody?
An unmarried parent can file for custody rights in Colorado. However, when there is a divorce proceeding, the court automatically decides custody matters. The best interest standard still applies.
Custody and Relocation Matters
If you are divorced and for some reason relocating out of state, you should seriously consider retaining an attorney to correctly deal with custody. The price just relocating without court approval can be very dangerous. Each parent has rights and one parent should not just assume that they do not have to consult with the other.
