Child Custody Lawyer Norman, OK

We understand how difficult it is when you can’t see your child as often as you’d like and how stressful it can feel to involve the family law courts in decisions about your child’s life. Shared custody with your child’s other parent, especially when there’s tension or mistrust, can make co-parenting a constant source of stress. As your Norman child custody lawyer, we help you work through those emotions so you can better focus on making the best legal decisions for your child’s well-being.

Our legal team has extensive experience creating practical and workable shared custody arrangements, even in high-conflict situations. We’ve seen just about everything and can give you insight and guidance on how to co-parent as effectively as possible. You may have more options than the typical “default” custody split, and we explore those possibilities with you. We also provide support and advice if your case goes to mediation, so you can find solutions that work best for your family.

If your child’s other parent isn’t following the custody agreement, our attorneys can help you file an enforcement order with the court. This will compel the other parent to follow the terms of the court order, whether it’s picking up your child on time or avoiding constant last-minute switches. Sometimes legal action is necessary to ensure compliance, and we’re ready to take whatever steps are needed to protect your family.

When life and circumstances change, our lawyers can revise an existing custody agreement if the old schedule is no longer practical. We’ll walk you through your options and help design a custody plan that fits your family’s current needs, then take the appropriate legal steps to implement it.
