New York Fathers’ Rights Lawyers

A father’s love and ability to care for a child is no different than a mother’s love and ability to care for the child. As a father, you have equal rights when the custody of your child is in question. If you want your child to live with you and not the mother, as experienced New York child custody attorneys we can help. Family law courts now allow for both parents to plead their case when it comes down to who the child will live with. In the past, fathers were often overlooked or not really heard at all. More and more fathers today are now stepping up and fighting for their rights as parent. Many fathers seek to have their children under their care and in their home.

Fathers’ Rights and Child Custody in New York

The first step toward getting custody would be to contact a New York child custody lawyer or attorney at our firm today. We can petition the courts for custody and represent you throughout the entire child custody process in family court. Family law requires for certain qualifications to be met when a parent is looking to obtain custody of their child.  For instance: can the parent provide for the child financially and emotionally? Who does the child have a stronger bond with?  Basically, the judge will order as to what is in the “best interest of the child” - always. When both parents meet the qualifications, a judge will rule for joint custody arrangements. If you disagree, you would have to prove as to why you feel the other parent does not meet the criteria or that the other parent is unfit.
