Accessible Custody and Visitation Lawyer

In a divorce, determining who gets custody of the children can be the most difficult and emotionally traumatic experience parents will face. Here at the law firm of Deborah M. Lubin, P.C., we've helped countless clients address these sensitive legal issues, ever conscious of the relationships at stake.

As with other family law issues, it's important for parents to understand how the law views child custody matters. For married parents seeking a divorce in the State of Georgia, each parent's relationship with the children is taken into consideration when determining custody. Nothing is regarded as final.

Legitimization

In addition to helping resolve typical custody concerns related to a divorce, our knowledgeable attorney also offers clients assistance with child custody issues for parents who are not married.

Many unmarried parents in Georgia assume that if the father's name is on the birth certificate, there is a legitimate claim to custody. Under Georgia law, unmarried father's have no custodial rights or obligations.

A father seeking legitimization of paternity must obtain a court order through legal action in order to be declared a legal father of a child. Distinguishing between legitimization with regard to paternity, and a mother's paternity claim as it relates to child support, is where having an experienced lawyer like Deborah M. Lubin can be highly valuable.
