Franklin, Tennessee, Child Custody Attorneys
There are three competing interests in a custody dispute: what you want, what the other parent wants, and what the court views as the best interests of your child. If you as co-parents cannot agree on a solution, the court will dictate one.
Divorce and custody lawyers Covey Johnston and Tim Street are effective litigators, but they know that an out-of-court custody agreement is preferable in just about every way to a courtroom tug-of-war over children. Our philosophy is to put clients in a strong position to negotiate a practical parenting solution, and to reserve litigation as a last resort.
We represent women and men, including fathers seeking primary custody. Our clients are working moms and dads balancing career and parenting duties, or sometimes the stay-at-home spouse or high earner. Often the stakes are high — not only custody and visitation, but the other intertwined aspects of divorce, namely property division, alimony and child support.
Our lawyers excel at guiding clients to a creative solution that takes everything into consideration such as work schedules and children's activities, vacations and holidays, private school, the preference of an older child.
In addition to initial custody, we also handle contentious issues such as:
- Parent relocation
- Modification of custody or parenting time
- Modification of child support
- Interference with visitation rights
- Contempt of court for unpaid support
- Paternity actions for child support or fathers' rights to visitation
