At the Law Offices of William L. Geary, we have a special familiarity with child custody and visitation matters in second marriages and other complex situations. Those complex situations sometimes can include clients who have entered into a domestic partnership or same sex relationship after a divorce or other parents who, for some reason or another face threats of retaliation from their former spouses.

Child custody and visitation rights are protected by law, regardless of whether one parent is being retaliated against because of his or her religion or politics or employment or even when a parent is involved in a gay or lesbian relationship. Be sure that, when someone attempts to retaliate against you, our team will aggressively defend your rights and your children's best interests through a detailed understanding of Ohio family law such as Rule 27 visitation rights (in Franklin County) or other specific statutes statewide.

We recognize that courts tend to favor shared parenting arrangements as being generally in the best interests of children of divorce. Under the unusual circumstances where there may be an allegation of child abuse, neglect or domestic violence, it will take the powerful advocacy of an experienced and effective child custody lawyer to ensure a proper and just outcome of the matter.
