Child Custody

Experienced Representation for Louisiana and Texas Parents

Mothers and fathers deserve to have a relationship with their children. If you are involved in a child custody dispute, an experienced family lawyer can help you protect your rights as a parent.

At the office of Michelle D. Bradley, Attorney at Law, we have more than eight years of experience helping Louisiana and Texas parents find child custody solutions that work for their families. We will make sure that you understand your legal options and protect your interests.

Establishing Child Custody

Louisiana and Texas courts will first look at the overall moral fitness of each parent. Does either parent have a history of drug abuse, alcoholism or child abuse? If there are no serious "red flags," the court will presume joint custody.

There is no rule that says every family with joint custody should have the same arrangement. With a master's degree in Counseling, attorney Michelle Bradley will take into account your child's needs as well as your interests. There are many options for sharing custody of your children, and we can help you develop a schedule that meets your family's needs.

Your Rights and Obligations as a Parent

Whether or not you and your child's other parent are or ever were married, you do have rights and obligations when it comes to your child. At a very basic level, you have a right to custody or visitation. And you have an obligation to provide financial, physical and emotional support.

In child custody disputes, our job is to protect your rights and help you come to an agreement regarding each parents' obligations. Call 337-990-0046 or contact us online to schedule an appointment at our Lake Charles office.
