Aggressive Legal Advocacy for Fathers in Los Angeles
Whether you’re preparing for mediation, seeking a fair parenting plan, or pursuing 50/50 custody, our Los Angeles child custody lawyers provide the strategic support and aggressive representation you need to secure a positive outcome.
Understanding California Child Custody Law
Under California Family Code, custody decisions are based on the best interest of the child. This legal standard prioritizes a child’s health, safety, and welfare, considering factors such as:
- The quality of the child’s relationship with each parent
- Each parent’s ability to provide a stable, loving home
- Any history of abuse, neglect, or substance use
- The ability of the parents to co-parent effectively
- The child’s preferences, if they are of sufficient age and maturity
- Legal Custody: The right to make important decisions about the child’s education, healthcare, and general welfare.
- Physical Custody: Determines where the child lives and which parent is responsible for daily care.
Can Fathers Get 50/50 Custody in Los Angeles?
At Reel Fathers Rights, we help fathers build strong, evidence-based arguments for equal custody. If you’ve been actively involved in your child’s life and can offer a stable, safe environment, you are in a strong position to pursue 50/50 custody. Our attorneys work to document your parenting role, highlight your contributions, and challenge any efforts to marginalize your involvement.
Mediation in Los Angeles Custody Cases
During mediation, a neutral third-party mediator works with both parents to facilitate discussion and assist with creating a parenting plan. Although the mediator cannot impose a decision, they may file a recommendation with the court if no agreement is reached.
At Reel Fathers Rights, we ensure that our clients are fully prepared for mediation. We walk you through what to expect, how to communicate effectively, and how to present your parenting goals in a way that aligns with your child’s best interests. Even outside of the courtroom, strategy matters—and we bring it to every phase of your case.
