Legal Custody of a Child
Child custody is a central component of many family law cases. The decisions made in these cases can have a far-reaching impact on a child’s overall wellbeing. Custody and child support are the two most direct ways in which a child’s life may be affected by family law disputes.

What Is Legal Custody?
Child custody has two important components. Physical custody determines where a child actually resides and who cares for that child. Though both parents may be involved in supporting a child, often just one individual is the custodial parent. However, a noncustodial parent can still retain legal custody of his or her children. Legal custody gives a parent the right to help make important decisions concerning the child’s welfare, including those involving:
- Education
- Religious activities
- Financial decisions
- Medical decisions
