Kansas and Missouri Visitation Rights Attorney

Getting sole custody of your child is no easy task. Joint physical custody, and even a standard visitation /parenting time schedule, is often better for the child because they are afforded access to both parents. For that reason, it can be difficult to persuade a judge that you deserve sole legal custody of your child, or that your former spouse is unfit to be a guardian/parent.
