"Best interests" is a vague description courts use to determine child custody rights. However, through case law, courts have determined applicable standards that are easy to understand and consider when determining which parent should be given custodial rights in a divorce proceeding. Most importantly courts focus on meeting the child's needs physically, educationally, spiritually, emotionally, and financially. Obtaining this information may result in a home study of each parent and interviews of the your child's teachers, doctors, school nurses, or any other relevant figure or institution. If you are faced with a child custody dispute, contact the Oklahoma family law attorneys at Atkins and Markoff to discuss your case today.

Many people hear the word “paternity” and simply think it means who fathered a child. However, paternity is more complex and is dealt with in many other situations than simply who is the father of the child. Pregnancies can be the result of a mere accident, and so laws had to be created in order to protect and serve the people in a difficult situation. Paternity issues are quite common today which resulted in the passage of several laws around the country to help define paternity. If you are being faced with a question of paternity be sure to consult an Oklahoma paternity suit lawyer about your legal rights.
