Father’s Day

It is almost here, Father’s Day. We meet lots of fathers in our family law practice. Some are excellent fathers. It is really important to know that Father’s rights in Arizona are on equal footing with mother’s rights.  Public policy and statutes in this state suggest that fit parents have a right to 50% of legal decision making and 50% of time with their kids. What does that mean? It means that is you are apart from the mother of your children, the courts will award you the ability to make decisions about your kids on equal footing with the mother. It means that parenting time can be split 50/50. You have a right to share in your kids’ lives. Father’s Day honors all those fathers who love, honor and respect their kids. If you need help to be involved in their lives, we can help.
