Legal Options for Custody and Access
Parents can opt for joint custody, sole custody, or split custody, depending on their situation. In joint custody, both parents share decision-making responsibilities, while in sole custody, one parent has primary authority over major life decisions. Even if one parent has sole custody, the other parent is usually granted visitation or parenting time unless it is deemed harmful to the child.
If disagreements persist, family lawyers Mississauga can help file for a custody order and represent clients in mediation or litigation to ensure a fair arrangement.
