Introduction During a divorce, children are one of the most affected parties. According to the Canadian Law, it is up to the parents protect their legal rights. Hence, it is important to seek legal counsel when it comes to making a decision about child custody.
What Is Child Custody? It refers to the child’s care, control, and maintenance. Biological parents possess the legal right to determine their child’s wellbeing including their residence, religious upbringing, education, and more.
Types Of Child Custody There are many different child custody types in Canadian family law, including: • Full Custody • Joint Custody • Shared Custody • Split Custody
Full Custody In full custody, one parent has complete control over their child’s possession. The kid lives with that parent permanently.
Joint Custody Joint custody refers to a 50/50 custody control of the parents over their children.
Shared Custody Shared custody means parents have to care for and house their kids for nearly equal time periods.
Split Custody Split custody is a type of child custody arrangement where both parents have split child custody and access.
