Joint Custody : An undervalued and often overlooked principle in Matrimonial Cases

Date

Today, we achieved a positive resolution for our client, securing joint custody through a settlement. Joint custody ensures that both parents remain actively involved in their child's upbringing, fostering a balanced, nurturing environment. This is vital for the child’s emotional well-being and growth, allowing them to benefit from the love, guidance, and support of both parents.

A Child should never be used as a pawn in matrimonial cases and it is a lawyer's duty to recognize that fact. Often times, you see children being caught in the crossfire in matrimonial disputes. This should never be the case. We may hold a responsibility towards our client but we hold a greater responsibility towards children of today as they would the leaders of tomorrow.

At Malcolm Fernandez, we take pride in advocating for our clients and navigating the complexities of matrimonial cases to achieve fair and lasting solutions. Our dedication to upholding family rights and ensuring the best interests of the child remain at the heart of everything we do.
