Types of Child Custody

There are two types of child custody: legal custody and physical custody.

Legal custody refers to the right to make decisions about the child’s education, healthcare, and other important aspects of their life. Physical custody refers to where the child lives.

Joint custody is where both parents share physical and legal custody of the child. Sole custody is where only one parent has physical and legal custody of the child.
