📣 FAQ Friday

“Do I really need a custody order if we already have a verbal agreement?”

Short answer? Yes.

Verbal agreements can fall apart the moment things get tense. A written, court-approved custody order gives you protection, clarity, and a whole lot fewer headaches down the road. Without it, you’re relying on trust, and let’s be real, that’s not always enough.

A parenting plan that worked two years ago might not work now and that doesn’t mean anyone’s failing.

It means you’re evolving. Your kids are growing. And your family deserves a plan that fits today, not yesterday.

We help families adjust with clarity, care, and a focus on what works now.

Q: Can I change my custody schedule just for summer?

A: Yes, but it’s not always simple. You’ll need either the other parent’s agreement or a court order. Without that, you could risk violating your current custody arrangement. A temporary order or written stipulation can help, but it’s important to get it right.
If summer plans are turning into custody conflicts, it might be time to revisit the agreement.

Had an incredible day volunteering with Junior Achievement of South Central PA working with middle schoolers. It was a privilege to share my knowledge as a family law attorney and a professional in the community. Spending time with these brilliant students reminded me of why I love helping families and the positive impact we can make in our communities.

Divorce can be a difficult and confusing time for children. As a parent, it's important to be mindful of how your child may be feeling and take steps to help them through the process. Here are some tips for preparing your kids for divorce:

- Communicate openly and honestly: Children can sense when something is wrong, so it's important to be open and honest with them about what is happening. Explain the situation in simple and age-appropriate terms, and let them know that they are not responsible for the divorce.

- Reassure them of your love and commitment: Children need to know that they are still loved and that their parents will continue to take care of them.

- Encourage them to express their feelings: Children may have a wide range of emotions during this time, such as anger, sadness, or confusion. Encourage them to talk about their feelings and reassure them that it's normal to feel this way.

- Maintain consistency: Divorce can disrupt a child's daily routine, so it's important to maintain consistency as much as possible. Try to keep their school and extracurricular activities the same, and make sure that they still have time to spend with friends and family.

- Avoid badmouthing your spouse: Children love both parents, and it can be confusing and hurtful for them to hear negative things about one of them. It’s important to keep a positive attitude, and avoid discussing the specifics of the separation or any personal issues related to the separation with them.

- Seek professional help: If your child is having a difficult time coping, seek the help of a therapist or counselor. They can provide additional support and guidance for your child and the whole family.

- Maintain a co-parenting relationship: It's important to maintain a positive co-parenting relationship with your spouse, even if you are no longer together. This will help ensure a smooth transition for your child and make it easier for them to adjust to the new circumstances.

With the right support and guidance, children can adjust and learn to cope with the new changes in their lives. Remember, each child is unique and their needs and reactions may vary, so it's important to communicate with them, be patient, and seek the guidance of a professional if necessary.
