Minnesota Third Party Custody & Visitation Lawyers
All families are unique, and so are the circumstances and individuals involved with the upbringing of a child. In Minnesota, a third-party custody action is a court proceeding by which a third party (or nonparent) seeks to obtain custody rights to a child. Custody rights include physical custody and legal custody. Physical custody refers to the right to control the routine daily care of the child and the residence of the child. Legal custody refers to the right to determine the child’s upbringing, including education, health care, and religious training. The Minneapolis divorce attorneys at Arnold, Rodman & O’Keefe PA can assist you in finding an effective solution for your family situation while pursuing or defending a Minnesota third-party custody action.
