California Family Law Attorney Assisting Parents With Time Share Allocation
I believe one of the primary goals during a divorce action is to make sure it is as stress free as possible for the children. I know that sometimes people have to be reminded that both parents have an obligation and a right to contribute to raising the children and spending time with them. I feel it is important to understand the value of keeping whatever history or battles parents have with one another away from kids in order to preserve each parent's relationship with the kids as well as with each other for the future.
I keep all of these concerns in mind when helping parents arrive at fair time sharing agreements and parenting plans. These detailed agreements are crucial to figuring out child custody and visitation issues in California. Please contact the Law Offices of Steven G. Rosenberg to arrange a free consultation to discuss your parenting plan concerns and goals. I offer free consultations and can even arrange to meet you in the evening or during the weekend if I have availability in my schedule.
Time Share Agreements
I can help you reach a parenting plan and timeshare agreement that is equitable, using an open forum, such as mediation. It is important to realize that children are better off spending quality time with both parents. I emphasize that it is vital that each parent treat the other parent with respect in front of the kids.
When working out a parenting plan, I also encourage clients and the other side to be as be as flexible as possible with schedules. As your divorce lawyer, I will help you arrive at a parenting plan that takes into account:
- How parents will address make-up time when it comes to covering for one another at the last minute and taking the children to activities
- Equitable split of major holidays
- Responsibilities of each party concerning school pick-ups and after-school activities
- Allocating specific days of importance, such as parent birthdays, child birthdays, trips to see one side of the family
The goal is to find an acceptable solution for everyone that is also in the best interest of the children. If there has been a history of animosity between the parties formalizing this type of agreement, an agreement that is extremely detailed about each party's responsibilities can help avoid protracted litigation and additional legal costs after the divorce has been finalized. Additionally, if everyone works together, you can also reduce expenses in the form of eliminating the need for multiple custody evaluations and court appearances.
I can also help you with this issue as a single issue if you have resolved all other aspects of your divorce.
