Child custody is the single-most emotional part of any divorce.

Attorney Judkins has spent the last decade trying high takes cases before judges and juries throughout Middle Tennessee. Our firm is results oriented, meaning we fight for the best outcome for your needs and goals.

PHYSICAL CUSTODY, LEGAL CUSTODY & VISITATION

Child custody or parenting time, is divided into two types, physical or legal custody and visitation rights. Physical custody refers to which parent the child lives with, whether the mom, dad or both. Legal custody or decision-making rights is custody for one or both parents to make decisions for their child regarding healthcare, education, and religious upbringing. Even if one parent has physical custody, both parents may share legal custody regarding their child. The parent with whom the child resides may still be legally compelled to allow parenting time to the non-custodial parent.

Child custody agreements (also known as visitation agreements) come together in two ways. Both parents can make an agreement, or have lawyers do so. Additionally, a parent may have to sue for their right to custody or visitation in court. Our Murfreesboro child custody firm is well equipped to handle either situation. If you need help litigating for your children's futures, James Judkins is equipped to be your representative and ally.
