In the case of divorce, generally, the court having jurisdiction of the divorce proceedings also determines who shall have custody of children from the marriage. (The authority to do so is considered part of the original jurisdiction of the court, and not as a new authority being conferred upon them.) Under the common statutory provision, the parents of a child born within a marriage are joint guardians of that child and the rights of both parents are equal--each parent has an equal right to the custody of the child when they separate. Like other aspects of family law, most law in this field is state rather than Federal.

Choosing a Lawyer

Should you choose a large lawyer or a small lawyer:
The size of a law firm has no relation to how well your case will be taken up. A large law firm may seem well staffed and having a great office, but what you must see is whether they will take out enough time and effort towards your case. Large firms receive large cases that would figure above smaller cases in their priority list. A law firm with over 10 lawyers on its rolls can be considered a large firm.

Always find out how much experience the lawyer has:
Before choosing a lawyer, you must ascertain how much experience the lawyer has. A lawyer with more than 8 years of experience is good, 5-7 years is just fine, 3-4 years is somewhat doubtful and lesser experience than that is not acceptable. There is no doubt that the years of practice are important in sharpening the layers skills as well as his standing in the eyes of the court.
