Custody Disputes

Nothing more precious results from a marriage than children and when the marriage breaks down, the parties often can be at odds over who the more capable parent is and who should have custody of the minor children. While it generally is in the child's best interest to have a loving relationship with both parents, there are cases in which one or the other parent is incapable for a variety of reasons of providing responsible and loving care for their child. In those instances, Cotler Law LLC partners with child psychologists and other professionals to determine the best interests of the child and will utilize the court system to achieve that end. When both parents are responsible caretakers, as certified mediators we are often able to mediate an amicable resolution between the parents as to appropriate living arrangements and visitation.
