Comprehensive Custody and Visitation Services

Hendrix-Smith & Jones, APC, offers a full spectrum of services tailored to address the unique needs of each client. Whether you are initiating a custody dispute, seeking to modify an existing arrangement, or facing challenges with visitation rights, we bring confident expertise and a personalized approach to every case.

  • Child Custody Arrangements: We assist with determining both physical custody (where the child lives) and legal custody (who makes important decisions about the child’s welfare). Our goal is to ensure that arrangements are in the best interest of the child while unapologetically protecting your parental rights.
  • Visitation Rights: We advocate for fair and reasonable visitation schedules that maintain the child’s relationship with both parents where appropriate, ensuring stability and continuity in their lives.
  • Modification of Custody Orders: Circumstances change, and so may the need for custody adjustments. We guide you through the process of modifying existing custody orders to reflect new realities while safeguarding your parental rights.
  • Enforcement of Custody and Visitation Orders: If a court order is not being followed, we take prompt and effective action to enforce compliance, ensuring that your rights and the child’s best interests are upheld. [I am worried this implies contempt, which we don’t do. It doesn’t say contempt, just enforcement, so maybe not, but putting that thought here.]
  • Mediation and Alternative Dispute Resolution: In the applicable cases, we prioritize amicable solutions and often utilize mediation to reach agreements that avoid prolonged litigation. Our mediator is skilled in facilitating productive discussions and resolving disputes effectively.
