Sole Custody vs. Joint Custody

When determining custody, Florida law focuses on the best interests of the child. A key part of this involves determining whether sole custody or joint custody will work best. 

Sole Custody

Sole custody means one parent has both legal and physical custody of the child and makes major decisions regarding education, healthcare, and general welfare. Visitation rights are often granted to the non-custodial parent, but their involvement in decision-making is limited. Sole custody may be appropriate in cases involving safety concerns, significant parental conflict, or where one parent is unable to provide a stable environment.
