Custody Arrangements in South Carolina
Custody arrangements involve both physical custody and legal custody. Physical custody sets out when your child will spend time with each parent. Parents often share physical custody, though one parent might have primary custody while the other has visitation rights.
Legal custody refers to the parent’s ability to be involved in important decisions in the child’s life. Parents regularly share the ability to have a say in their child’s upbringing, including decisions about religion, education, and healthcare.
The Best Interests of the Child
All custody decisions are based on what the court believes is in the best interest of the child. This includes who was the child’s primary caretaker prior to the break-up, as well as many other factors. You want an attorney who knows how to demonstrate that you having substantial custody rights is in the best interests of your child.
