Milwaukee-Waukesha Area Child Custody Law Attorney Tom Marola
Child custody issues are at the crux of many divorce cases. Parents who are struggling with the guilt of dissolving their family unit often lose sight of how to protect the child's best interest in this new and very real situation. Egos can get in the way, but so can financial considerations, as spouses worry about the economic impact of receiving or making child support payments.
The Law Offices of Thomas J. Marola offers compassionate, experienced representation that keeps your children's best interests as the top priority. Attorney Thomas Marola works closely with child advocates, mediators, and the opposing attorney to work out parenting agreements, visitation arrangements, and custody settlements that meet the needs of the parents and the children. In our experience, a negotiated resolution to child custody cases is nearly always best for the family.
Child custody decrees handed down from a judge's bench are often the result of unreasonable demands by one of the parents, and judges have only limited options they can choose from under the law. A negotiated settlement can be more flexible, and allows the parties to tailor their agreement to their specific goals and needs.
