Hello and warm regards,
I read your question on Lawzana regarding your rights and child custody matters. I understand that this is a sensitive and important situation for you.
While custody laws vary depending on your specific location, there are generally two main types of rights you should be aware of:
Legal Custody: This refers to your right to make major decisions about your child's life, such as their education, healthcare, and religious upbringing. In many jurisdictions, courts prefer "joint legal custody," meaning both parents share this decision-making power unless there is a specific reason not to.
Physical Custody: This determines who the child lives with. It can be "sole" (living with one parent) or "joint" (spending time with both). Courts typically prioritize the "best interests of the child" above all else when deciding this, looking at factors like emotional bonds, stability, and the ability of each parent to care for the child.
Because every case is unique and depends heavily on the laws of your specific country or state, it is difficult to give you exact advice without knowing more details.
I specialize in providing legal guidance on these matters. Since I cannot assist you in person at the moment, I offer text-based consultations via WhatsApp at a very affordable rate to help clarify your situation and next steps.
