At ABA Family Lawyers, we know that children will continue to thrive when separation happens when they are supported by thoughtful, balanced parenting arrangements. We help parents focus on the child’s well-being by developing parenting plans that provide stability, consistency, and a strong foundation for the future. Our approach centers on minimizing conflict and preserving healthy parent-child relationships.
Parenting arrangements after separation are guided by the best interests of the child. There are two key components to every plan:
Parenting schedules are tailored to a child’s age, routine, and developmental stage. For younger children, this may mean frequent, shorter visits to support attachment with both parents. Older children may need more flexible arrangements that accommodate school, activities, and social life. Parenting plans are often modified as children grow and circumstances change.
Major decisions include education, emergency medical care, religion, and extracurricular involvement. Decision-making authority can be shared or allocated to one parent, depending on the family’s unique circumstances and the needs of the child.
We guide families through the creation of comprehensive parenting arrangements—through negotiation, mediation, or litigation—ensuring clarity and enforceability. We assist with:
Effective parenting plans reduce conflict, build trust, and provide children with the security they need to flourish. By prioritizing the child’s emotional and developmental needs, we help families transition smoothly into new routines and co-parenting relationships.
