Fathers' Rights

Fathers' Rights in Ventura County

Board Certified Family Specialist. 30+ Years' Experience.

Although family law has evolved over the years and no longer allows for bias toward either parent in divorce cases, a remnant of bias toward the mother can still remain. As a result, it is in your best interest to retain a Ventura County family law attorney if you are the father in a divorce. Family law courts take a child's bet interest into account when considering child custody, child support, and visitation rights. Your best decision would be to hire a lawyer with the knowledge and skill to defend your fathers' rights.

Every child deserves to have both parents in their life. As the father, you play a strong and impactful role in your child's development and should be able to invest time in their life. By retaining a family law attorney from Cutter & Lax, you will have the caring guidance and relentless representation of a competent and successful lawyer to ensure that you are granted custody, support, and/or visitation orders without bias. Your child's best interest is important during and after a divorce, so make sure that you and they are granted the best outcome in these areas. Contact our offices today to learn how we can handle your case.
