Choose Us For Cypress Child Custody Lawyer

Binoye Jos is the best child custody attorney in Cypress. Child custody matters take into consideration all the issues, big and small, concerning future living arrangements for the child, including parenting time of the noncustodial parent.

Child custody is the most vital aspect of any separation and/or divorce action in court. It is of utmost importance to each child that their parents make the best, most responsible decisions possible when choosing an attorney to represent them throughout the child custody process.

The courts require strict adherence to many rules and regulations in every child custody case. Since child custody is so emotionally charged, child custody decisions are – and should be – some of the most difficult decisions of one’s life. The health and wellbeing of your child are at stake, and every good parent wants to do whatever is in their child’s best interests. These decisions must be made with utmost sincerity by both parents, and in a manner that ensures that each child is served in a manner that is most beneficial to them.

At JOS FAMILY LAW , you can rest assured that your case is being handled by an experienced attorney who possesses not only the knowledge and understanding required to navigate your case and negotiate on your behalf, but one who also cares deeply about your matter and will give you the best possible legal advice and services.

Unfortunately, some parents use their child as a weapon against the other parent. This is so detrimental to the child, who will ultimately suffer the most with mental, physical, and spiritual difficulties that will cause them undue and utterly undeserved pain, often for many years past the time when they reach the age of majority.

At Jos Family Law we are available to provide consultations, at any time, including the weekends or evenings.

At JOS FAMILY LAW , Binoye Jos helps and supports each and every client in a manner that takes into account all the sentiments and emotions that accompany any child custody case. Mr. Jos assists his clients to work with opposing parents as much as possible in order to handle as many issues as possible before involving the courts.

When parents no longer live together, and depending on the age and emotional maturity of the child, the courts often take into consideration the child’s preference regarding living arrangements. Because a child will be deeply affected by the decisions reached by the courts about which parent the child will live with, and because any and all such decisions will affect the holistic growth and wellbeing of the child, the courts consider input from the child seriously, whenever appropriate.

If you find yourself in a difficult situation regarding child custody issues, you must have an experienced and understanding attorney to help you reach a resolution that best suits you and your child. Feel free to contact JOS FAMILY LAW , and we will help you throughout the child custody process in the most seamless manner possible.

If you and your spouse signed a prenuptial agreement which contains a clause waiving the right to request Spousal Support, you should be aware that based on Family Code Section 1615(c), the burden lays with the proponent of that clause to establish that it is valid. This means that if your spouse can establish that they did not understand what they signed, then the Court may deem that clause unenforceable. If you find yourself facing this situation, call JOS FAMILY LAW for a consultation. Attorney Binoye Jos would be happy to review your agreement and offer his expert opinion on its validity. If needed, he will present your arguments to the Court on your behalf.

If you are engaged and are considering a PRENUPTIAL AGREEMENT, consider calling JOS FAMILY LAW. He can consult with you on the benefits and pitfalls of an agreement based on your unique situation.

California is a “community property’ state meaning that for the most part, all property acquired during the marriage belongs to the ‘community.’ The community refers to the married couple as a unit. For this reason, prenuptial agreements are generally disfavored. To be enforceable, among other requirements:

  1. the language has to be clear
  2. the agreement has to be voluntarily signed
  3. both sides understand all terms and conditions

For this reason, it is helpful if both sides are assisted by counsel in the negotiation, preparation and signing of this type of agreement. If you are considering this type of agreement, call us for a consultation.

California Child Custody Laws

Under California law, child custody is decided by the court based on the best interests of the child. The ‘best interests of the child's standard is a national set of laws that govern child custody throughout the country.

Child custody can be physical or legal. Physical custody refers to the location where the child would reside. This could be either shared by both parents or exclusively held by one. Legal custody is the decision-making authority of parents on important issues like education, healthcare, religion, etc.

Types of Child Custody in California

Broadly, there are two kinds of custody - legal custody and physical custody. Both are further divided into sole or shared legal custody and sole or joint physical custody.

Joint Physical Custody

Under joint physical custody, the child lives with both parents for a specified amount of time.

Sole Physical Custody

The child resides with one parent exclusively and gets visitations from the other.

Joint Legal Custody

Joint legal custody refers to the rights of both parents to decide on important matters of their child's life (education, healthcare, religious upbringing, etc.)

Sole Legal Custody

Sole legal custody is when the child's care and upbringing are left to one parent exclusively. This is a rare arrangement only awarded if one parent is deemed unfit for parenting.

California courts view joint or shared custody arrangements as the most beneficial for the children. In the absence of any history of domestic violence or substance abuse, the court would want a shared agreement between the parents for their child's custody.

Thank you very much to Mr. Jos and to all his group of professionals who helped me get out of my child support case with a very good result. Each case is different and my case was very complicated. I live in the state of Virginia and the child support office of the state of California was starting a case against me, the amount they wanted me to pay was ridiculously high I didn't know what to do because I don't live in California and I had never met the child either. I searched online for a lawyer in California and thank God I found Mr. Jos's law office. I don't know them personally but I put my trust in them and they didn't disappoint me. We had very good communication despite the distance and they were always available to talk to me and clarify my doubts. Mr. James was the one who took my case to the end and after a long and very difficult process everything went very well in my favor much more than expected. I am very grateful to God for putting the entire team of professionals from Mr. Jos' office on my way. Words are not enough for me to describe everything they did for me and how grateful I am. I definitely recommend Mr. Jos's law firm. Thank you Mr. James for not giving up in my case and having achieved a magnificent result in my favor.

This was the second attorney that represented me for my divorce. Binoye is a very knowledgeable, fair, and professional attorney. They are reliable and this made my experience way less painful. They are definitely not greedy for money, they are not one of the many attorneys out there who overbill for their services. I truly recommend them.

Nader Zayid

JOS family Law took on my case which entailed custody and move away components and I honestly could not say enough great things about JOS Family Law! Mr. Jos is not only extremely knowledgeable and professional, but it is also extremely obvious how much he cares for his clients on a personal level as well. There is an expression that two heads are better than one, however, Mr. Jos' philosophy takes it further as eight heads are better than two. It was so impressive and reassuring how collaborative everyone at the office works together to meet on regular cadences and discuss their client's cases to brainstorm strategies in order to seek the best possible outcome for their clients. Mr. Jos has an amazing team of extremely talented and knowledgeable attorneys that have worked together on my case. James was the lead attorney on my case and also represented me in my hearing. James was able to get us everything we were asking for as he successfully proved that full custody remaining with me is in the best interest of the children and that the move away is in the best interest of the children as well. We were able to come up with a plan to ensure that the children's mother can visit regularly and still maintain a healthy relationship. James is a rock star attorney! I would without hesitation refer anyone seeking help in a family law matter to call Jos Family Law!
