You Thought Property Division Was Messy? Try Fighting Over the Kids.
Join us in a new Family Law MEE module on
Custody.Custody: the part of family law where emotions are high, everyone’s petty, and the bar exam expects you to calmly apply the UCCJEA like it's not a disaster.
You can find it in the free
MEE Course.
Pretty simple. General partnerships are dangerous for this reason.
Pretty simple. General partnerships are dangerous for this reason.
We're going over:
- The difference between legal custody and physical custody
- Why joint custody does not mean 50/50 time
- The “best interests of the child” standard and how to write about it without sounding vague
- The rule that bars modifying custody without a substantial change in circumstances
- And why evidence of harm is your go-to phrase when you’re dealing with emergency jurisdiction
We're also get into:
- What makes a home state under the UCCJEA
- How to handle jurisdiction when parents are in different states
- Why you can’t just decide to move a kid across the country without asking
- And how to spot every single trap the bar exam loves to set around modification, relocation, and enforcement
I would fight for 100% sole legal and physical custody for any goat in the pasture.
Let's go.
