Child Custody
Like most states, the standard for child custody determinations in
California is the overall best interest of the child with an emphasis
on assuring the “health, safety, and welfare” of the child and “frequent and continuing contact”
with both parents absent child abuse, domestic violence, or where the
contact would not be in the best interest of the child as provided in
the California family code section 3011 (See California Family Code
Section 3011, 3020, 3040, 3080. Further, according to California family
code section 3040, child custody should be granted in an order of preference and according to the best interest of the child.
