Custodial arrangements

Custodial arrangements refer to the legal and practical frameworks established for the care and supervision of children after parents separate or divorce. These arrangements determine where the child will live, how decisions about their upbringing are made, and the time each parent spends with the child. There are different types, such as sole custody (one parent has primary responsibility) and joint custody (both parents share responsibilities). The aim is to ensure the child's well-being and stability, while allowing both parents to maintain a meaningful relationship with their child.
