Frequently Asked
Questions

Whether you need an attorney depends on the complexity and nature of your legal issue. However, having an attorney provides significant advantages: expert guidance, legal protection, efficient resolution, skilled negotiation, and courtroom representation. If you are facing legal challenges or uncertainties, consulting an attorney is always a wise step to ensure your interests are safeguarded. At Legaimage, our experienced advocates are here to guide you through every step of the process.

Child custody is determined based on the best interests of the child. Courts consider: the child's emotional, physical, and educational well-being; parenting abilities; the child's preference (depending on age/maturity); parent-child relationships; health of parents; history of abuse or neglect; living arrangements; and each parent's willingness to encourage the other's relationship with the child. There are two types: Legal Custody (right to make important decisions about upbringing) and Physical Custody (where the child lives). Courts prioritize joint custody arrangements where possible.

Legal custody refers to the right and responsibility of a parent to make important decisions about the child's upbringing — education, healthcare, religious practices, and general welfare. It can be sole (one parent) or joint (both parents share decision-making). Physical custody refers to where the child lives and day-to-day care arrangements. A parent may have legal custody even if they do not have physical custody. At Legaimage, our advocates are skilled in handling both types of custody matters.

The timeline depends on the type of divorce: Uncontested Divorce (mutual consent) — if both parties agree on all major issues, it can take a few weeks to a few months. Contested Divorce — if parties disagree on significant matters, it may take several months to years. Many jurisdictions impose mandatory waiting (cooling-off) periods of 90 days to 6 months. Court backlogs and complex issues like custody disputes can also prolong the process. At Legaimage, our advocates work diligently to streamline the divorce process and protect your rights.

Collaborative law is a legal approach designed to resolve disputes amicably without resorting to litigation. Key aspects include: commitment to settlement (both parties agree not to go to court), open communication, a team-based approach with neutral professionals, voluntary participation, and a focus on underlying interests rather than rigid positions. It is commonly used in family law matters such as divorce and child custody. It is particularly beneficial when preserving relationships and confidentiality is a priority.
