Shared Parenting vs Joint Custody: Joint Custody and Equal Parenting Time
Mar 15, 2024People often come in and they say I want joint custody and they don't realize that there's more to custody than just that legal aspect. There's also the parenting time aspect and more often than not when people come to me they say that they want joint custody they want equal parenting time.
A person can have joint custody with the other parent and it doesn't mean that they get equal parenting time. A person can have sole custody of the children and still share equal parenting time with the other parent. So joint custody doesn't necessarily mean equal parenting time. This comes up a lot in my practice. People come in to see me and they tell me they want joint custody, but they don't realize there are two aspects to custody. There is the legal aspect of custody and is there is the physical aspect of custody. Legal custody and physical custody are separate issues.
