Custody
The concept of custody is generally composed of two sections - legal custody and physical custody. Legal custody generally refers to major decision-making authority and responsibility for day-to-day activities. Physical custody generally relates to the time the child spends with each party and is often interchangeable with the concept of parenting time.
Divorce
Divorce is a method of terminating a marriage contract between two individuals, but in reality is so much more. Divorce is often emotionally, physically, and financially draining.
Support & Property
Louisiana is a community property law state which means that unless you have a Marriage Contract in place, assets and debts acquired during the marriage are community property. Of course there are always exceptions to the rule, but generally speaking, Louisiana law provides for the assets and debts of the parties to be equally divided in the community property partition.
