Attorney representation in Murray, Utah since 1944

Utah Child Custody Attorney

At the Salt Lake area law firm of Day Shell & Liljenquist L.C., our family law and divorce lawyers, Jeff Kitchen and Steve Spencer, represent and advise families in all matters related to child custody and visitation. From initial custody orders to modifications in the visitation schedule, Steve and Jeff offer knowledgeable legal advice and services.  They will go to bat in court for you.

Modifications of custody and visitation orders

In addition to helping clients arrive at initial custody and visitation arrangements that work, we draft petitions to modify an existing child custody or visitation order. When a parent moves out of the area, making the previous visitation order difficult to abide by, we help develop a new schedule and have it approved by the court. If a parent becomes seriously ill, and can no longer care for a child, adjustments to the custody order can make it possible for that parent to remain in the child’s life.

Options in child custody matters

We help divorcing parents determine the best custody and visitation arrangements for them, and more important, for their children. We negotiate custody options and parenting time schedules that work for both parents and are in the best interests of the children.

We review all available options with clients, making sure they understand the benefits and drawbacks of each type of custody arrangement. Parental visitation schedules are usually tied to the custody order, with a non-custodial parent having visitation rights.
