kids are better off with me, jersey city newark child custody attorney

"I want custody of my kids." "The kids are better with me." These are just a couple of reasons people offer when discussing their attempt to obtain custody of their children during a divorce or if a relationship failed and the parties no longer live together, etc. In order to change custody, meaning instead of the children living with the person who has residential custody to the person now seeking custody, the burden of proof is on the moving party or person seeking the custody now. Showing up to court yelling or making claims that are either lies or cannot be proven will not lead to a change in custody. If you seek to change custody or maintain the status quo you should considser working with a family law attorney in order to build a stronger case or more organized case. Judges in family law know the importance of who has custody and will not change it unless there are good reasons to do so, what's yours?
