 Custody Options in Beverly Hills

When determining custody, you'll need to decide both legal and physical custody. Legal custody refers to a parent's authority to make important decisions about the child's healthcare, education, and general welfare. Physical custody refers to where the child lives. Both types of custody can be shared jointly or held solely by one parent. Custody arrangements are flexible and can be tailored to the unique needs of each family. For instance, both parents might agree to share equal legal custody but grant one parent sole physical custody.


In California, courts generally hold that:


  • Any custody arrangement must reflect the child’s best interests.
  • Children benefit from maintaining a relationship with both parents. 

At Akbarian Law Group, APLC, our Beverly Hills custody lawyer can help you review your options and understand your rights as a parent. We aim to ensure that your custody arrangement supports your child's best interests while respecting your parental rights.


How Courts Determine Custody

In some cases, parents can agree on how to share custody. In others, the court needs to step in and make a ruling on their behalf. When awarding custody, courts will consider various factors, including:


  • Each parent’s contributions to raising the child thus far
  • The parents’ willingness to cooperate and co-parent effectively
  • The child’s preference, if they are mature enough
  • The child’s age
  • The length of the marriage
  • Any history of abuse or neglect
  • Any history of alcohol or substance abuse
