Knowing the Different Child Custody Arrangements is Important.

  1. In Nebraska, child custody arrangements can take different forms. Here are the main types:
  2. Joint Legal Custody: In this arrangement both parents collaborate on decisions related to the children’s education, medical needs, and religious upbringing. To obtain joint legal custody, both parties must testify that they can cooperate and communicate effectively for the children’s well-being.
  3. Joint Physical Custody: With joint physical custody, the children move between both parents’ homes for specified periods (e.g., alternating weeks; or school year with dad/summer with mom).
  4. Split Custody: This less common arrangement involves physically separating the children, with each living separately with one parent.
  5. Sole Custody: In sole custody, one parent has physical custody of the children, while the other parent has parenting time rights.

Remember that custody decisions depend on various factors, including the best interests of the children. If you’re navigating a custody situation, it’s essential to consult with Stephen D. Stroh who can guide you through the process.
