New York Child Custody Attorneys

Your Relationship With Your Child

You have most likely heard a glossary's worth of terminology related to child custody and visitation: sole custody, shared custody, joint custody, physical custody, legal custody and more. Terminology aside, you know exactly what your goal is. You want to protect your relationship with your child. You want to see that your child is brought up right, and that religion, education, health care and other important issues are addressed appropriately.

At Kelton & Teichner in Queens County and Nassau County, our attorneys have more than 30 years of experience helping people like you achieve that goal. We stand up for the rights of parents and grandparents in divorce and custody cases.

Parental Relocation

When parents go their separate ways, it is not uncommon for one to want to move out of town, out of the state or even out of the country. The move may be prompted by anything from job opportunities to returning home. If that parent wants to relocate with his or her child, matters become particularly complex. Our lawyers have the skill and knowledge to guide parents through the process of relocation hearings.

Modification of Child Custody and Visitation

Child custody and visitation arrangements can be changed in certain situations. If there has been a major change in circumstances, such as remarriage or the birth of a new child, a parent may want to adjust a schedule to spend more or less time with the child. If one parent believes the other is involved in illegal activity or is otherwise putting the child in danger, a change may also be necessary. We can help you through the modification process.
