A parenting plan that worked a year ago may not be the right plan today.

In the newest episode of Divorce and Child Custody Discussion with Brian A. Victor, I discuss how to recognize when it may be time to modify a parenting plan and why the focus should always remain on one key question:

What problem are we trying to solve for our child?

A parenting plan that works today may not work tomorrow.

As children grow, schedules change, activities evolve, and family circumstances shift. In my newest episode of Divorce and Child Custody Discussion, I discuss why effective parenting plans need to focus on the child not simply percentages or the number of overnights.

One important question for parents to consider: Does this parenting plan make my child’s life easier or harder?

The new podcast episode is available now on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.

Proud to be recognized by Million Podcasts as the #1 Child Custody Podcast.

NEW PODCAST EPISODE OUT NOW

In child custody cases, most parents don’t lose because they don’t care…

They lose because of one critical mistake they don’t even realize they’re making.

I’d love to hear your thoughts:
What do you think is the biggest mistake parents make in custody cases?

04/21/2026

Understanding neurodivergence in parenting plans is one of the most important and often overlooked issues in custody and divorce cases.

When structure, transitions, and communication are treated the same for every child, we risk creating parenting plans that look good on paper but don’t actually work in real life.

That’s exactly why I recorded this latest podcast episode.

I’m joined by Carol Waldman of The Waldman Way, where we break down:
• What neurodivergence actually looks like in individuals
• Why understanding structure is so critical
• What the Waldman Way does and what resources are available for neurodivergent individuals
• How these concepts translate into real-world parenting plans

When we better understand neurodivergence, we can move beyond generic parenting plans and start creating solutions that truly support the child.

I tie all of this together from a family law and mediation perspective in this episode.

If you work with families or are navigating custody yourself this is a conversation worth understanding. Look for Divorce and Child Custody Discussion wherever you get your podcasts and listen now!

Something special is coming to the airwaves tomorrow!

I’m thrilled to be joined by Waldman from The Waldman Way for an essential conversation on Neurodivergence and Parenting Plans.

When it comes to custody and co-parenting, a one-size-fits-all approach often misses the mark especially for neurodivergent children and parents. Carol and I are diving into how to structure parenting plans that prioritize sensory needs, routine consistency, and effective transitions.

Check out the video below for a quick preview of what we’re covering, and get your headphones ready for the full audio episode dropping tomorrow!

Thirteen years ago today, I took a leap of faith and opened my own private practice.

What started as a vision to provide dedicated, compassionate legal support to the San Diego community has grown into a journey more rewarding than I ever imagined.

Navigating the complexities of family law and mediation over the last decade-plus has taught me that this work is about much more than legal statutes. It’s about helping people navigate some of the most pivotal moments of their lives with dignity and clarity.

To my clients who have trusted me, my colleagues who have supported me, and my family who has been my rock: Thank you. I’m looking forward to many more years of advocacy, growth, and service.
