Shared Parental Responsibilities
In Ohio, shared parental responsibility is not the same as joint custody. The legislature has determined that both parents should be fully involved in the lives of their children. Our Westerville, Ohio law firm can explain how shared parental responsibilities may factor into your custody case and how they would affect the lives of your family members. We can also discuss how time sharing and visitation is determined and how that may impact your current situation.
Though many clients wish to obtain sole custody, or sole parental responsibility, the courts are often hesitant to grant this type of custody request unless specific and extenuating circumstances exist that warrant this type of arrangement.
