Custody Fundamentals & Parenting Plans — Law, Statutory Factors & Court-Ready Drafting

Custody Fundamentals & Parenting Plans — Law, Statutory Factors & Court-Ready Drafting

Custody cases require both a strong understanding of Georgia law and the ability to translate that law into clear, enforceable Parenting Plans. This class combines both components—teaching the statutory framework that governs custody determinations and the practical drafting skills necessary to prepare court-ready documents.

We begin with custody fundamentals, including:

• The legal standard for determining custody

• The distinction between legal and physical custody

• The statutory best-interest factors under O.C.G.A. § 19-9-3(a)
