Child custody cases in New York are decided based on the best interests of the child. Courts

evaluate numerous factors, including each parent's ability to provide a stable home

environment, the child's relationship with each parent, and the child's educational and emotional

needs. Custody may be awarded jointly or solely, depending on the circumstances of the case.

Because custody decisions can significantly impact your relationship with your child for years to

come, it is important to work with an attorney who understands the legal process and can

effectively advocate for your goals.
