Types of Child Custody

Arkansas recognizes two types of child custody:

  • Legal custody refers to the right to make decisions regarding certain aspects of your child's life, such as schooling, health care, and religious upbringing.
  • Physical custody refers to the right to have your child live with you.

There are a number of different custody arrangements that can be ordered by the court, including:

  • Joint custody – This type of custody arrangement means that both parents will share decision-making authority on matters such as schooling and medical care.
  • Sole custody – This type of custody arrangement means that one parent will have sole decision-making authority.
  • Split custody – This type of custody arrangement means that both parents will have their children a certain amount of time.
  • Unilateral custody – This type of custody arrangement means that the decision-making authority lies with only one parent.

    "Martin Attorneys know what they are doing and they know the law."

    "Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness"

    I went to Stephen Fisher at Martin Attorneys, PA with a difficult situation in which I was trying to make an ex-spouse rise to a level of either upholding his commitments of our divorce decree in regards to our children or move on and stop causing emotional damage etc.

    Mr. Fisher was extremely compassionate and also very resourceful in helping us all come to the table to find a solution that, while still in the trial period, allows an environment for both parents to flourish and to be given every reason and opportunity to believe that all efforts have been made on both sides of the table to provide the best outcome for those most vulnerable and important – our kids.

    I will definitely seek Mr. Fisher’s legal advice for matters in the future and refer friend’s family and strangers to him and his office. 5 Stars all the way!

    "Because of him and the other attorneys, she won her case! I would recommend them to everyone I know."
    Martin Attorneys has helped me with several cases--medical malpractice and estate planning. And just recently Stephen Fisher helped my granddaughter with a very tough case. Because of him and the other attorneys, she won her case! I would recommend them to everyone I know.

    This office was beyond friendly, extremely diligent, and most importantly kind. They did not nickel and dime me to death. They handled the business at hand and kept me informed along the way. Highly highly recommended to anyone they have so many areas of expertise.
    "This was my first and only time to file for bankruptcy so I was completely unsure of the process and frankly, I was a little scared. When all was said and done, it was not so scary."
    They made a very unpleasant experience not so unpleasant. They kept me informed and weren't condescending if I didn't respond in a timely manner do to circumstances beyond my control, and it was over before I thought it would be. At age 56 this was my first and only time to file for bankruptcy so I was completely unsure of the process and frankly, I was a little scared. When all was said and done, it was not so scary.
    "I can't thank them enough for helping my family and I get through the tough times we went through."
    They were very helpful and extremely nice. I can't thank them enough for helping my family and I get through the tough times we went through. The staff was very welcoming and understanding, I really recommend their help if anyone is looking for good lawyers!
