Local Family Law Attorneys
​Mentor Divorce Lawyers

At Hanahan & Hinton, LLC, we represent clients in divorces, dissolutions, legal separations, custody cases, and cases involving grandparent rights.   The end of a marriage is an emotional time that requires experienced and aggressive legal representation. Every aspect of your divorce is handled with a focus on your best interests and those of your children, specifically in matters involving child custody and support.  

Obtain Custody or Shared Parenting of Your Child

Ohio Revised Code Section ORC 3109.04 addresses the best interest factors for children.  (1) In determining the best interest of a child pursuant to this section, whether on an original decree allocating parental rights and responsibilities for the care of children or a modification of a decree allocating those rights and responsibilities, the court shall consider all relevant factors, including, but not limited to:

(a) The wishes of the child's parents regarding the child's care;

(b) If the court has interviewed the child in chambers pursuant to division (B) of this section regarding the child's wishes and concerns as to the allocation of parental rights and responsibilities concerning the child, the wishes and concerns of the child, as expressed to the court;

(c) The child's interaction and interrelationship with the child's parents, siblings, and any other person who may significantly affect the child's best interest;

(d) The child's adjustment to the child's home, school, and community;

(e) The mental and physical health of all persons involved in the situation;

(f) The parent more likely to honor and facilitate court-approved parenting time rights or visitation and companionship rights;

(g) Whether either parent has failed to make all child support payments, including all arrearages, that are required of that parent pursuant to a child support order under which that parent is an obligor;

(h) Whether either parent or any member of the household of either parent previously has been convicted of or pleaded guilty to any criminal offense involving any act that resulted in a child being an abused child or a neglected child…

 (i) Whether the residential parent or one of the parents subject to a shared parenting decree has continuously and willfully denied the other parent's right to parenting time in accordance with an order of the court;

(j) Whether either parent has established a residence, or is planning to establish a residence, outside this state.

We can assist you in your divorce, dissolution, or legal separation in attempting to obtain custody, shared parenting, and child support.
