Both mothers and fathers involved in a divorce go through a difficult process that involves legal hurdles and personal issues. While fathers have suffered inequities in the past, attitudes and perceptions have changed. Today, Arizona law presumes that children benefit most from contact with both parents.<\/p>\n
Times have changed. In negotiating or\u00a0litigating<\/a>\u00a0divorce agreements, particularly those that involve\u00a0child custody<\/a>, legal decision-making and parenting time, fathers are entitled to the same rights as mothers. More fathers are playing an active and equal role in their children’s lives post-divorce. At the law office of\u00a0Terry J. Fong Law Group<\/a>, we encourage them to show the court their desire and ability to play a more active role in life decisions involving their children and contribute equally to their children’s upbringing and welfare.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner column_margin=”default” text_align=”left”][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column_text]\n Fathers once paid more in\u00a0child support<\/a>\u00a0and spousal maintenance, also known as\u00a0alimony<\/a>. They took on more of the marital debts. Today, laws require both parents to make it a priority to provide their fair share.<\/p>\n For fathers of children born out of wedlock, establishing paternity is paramount. Time is of the essence to have the court and law enforcement recognize the biological father. Delays can lead to losing rights and being denied time with your child.<\/p>\nThe Help Arizona Fathers Need From A Chandler Parental Rights Attorney<\/h4>\n
