Child Custody and Visitation: Best Interests of the Child
Make the system work for you. Your children are your future, which is why it is important for you to obtain an aggressive, knowledgeable attorney who will easily navigate the judicial system. Child custody, visitation and support laws reveal society's sensitivity to children. In handling these types of matters, the court's paramount concern is the best interests of the children. If you are seeking custody of your children, we will strive to demonstrate to the court that it's in your children's best interests to stay with you.
Long gone are the days of boilerplate custody and visitation arrangements. If you are being denied your parental rights or feel that your children need protection, The Law Offices of Aubrey Burton Jr. is here for you. When you are fighting for custody or visitation of your children, you need the advice and assistance of a family law attorney. If you are a mother, father, grandparent or relative who needs an initial order or modification to protect your rights, call for a free telephone consultation.
If the court awards you custody of your children, it may grant your former spouse visitation rights. We have helped our clients work out flexible visitation schedules. When the parties are in agreement, we will prepare the proposed schedule and submit it to the court with a request to enter it without requiring you to appear in court.
Sometimes parties other than the parents seek visitation rights. We are experienced at pursuing and obtaining orders setting visitation time with grandparents, other family members or third parties.
Enforcement Actions: Faster Results
At the Law Offices of Aubrey Burton Jr., we also represent parents in enforcement actions. Moreover, we actively represent non-custodial parents and fight to prevent oppressive child support and alimony collection attempts. We will act quickly and aggressively to collect or reduct child support payments. If your former partner refuses to pay the child support the court ordered, we will request that the court garnish his/her salary or withhold a tax refund to pay the child support he or she owes.
When you're fighting for custody of your children and you need the advice and assistance of a family law attorney, contact the Law Offices of Aubrey Burton Jr. at 301-420-5540 in Forestville or call our Waldorf telephone number at 301-861-4201 for a free telephone consultation.
Post-Decree Modifications
Life is not static, and neither are the terms of your divorce or custody order. If you have custody of your children, the cost to support them increases as they grow. Likewise, if you recently started a new job, you may need to modify the visitation schedule. We will file a request for a modification on your behalf, to adjust the support or visitation terms to fit your needs.
