🤔 Many Arizona parents assume parenting time and legal decision-making are connected, but they address different matters.

👪 Parenting time determines how much time a child spends with each parent.
🏫 Legal decision-making determines who makes major decisions about a child’s education, health care, and other important areas of their life.

➡️ A parent can have sole legal decision-making authority while both parents continue to share parenting time. Likewise, parents may share legal decision-making even if one parent has significantly more parenting time.

⚖️ Have questions about your custody arrangements? Whether you need guidance on parenting time or legal decision-making, Shaffer Family Law is here to help.

☀️ Summer didn't resolve ongoing marital challenges.
🏡 More time together revealed deeper issues.
🎓 Children leaving for college prompted couples to reevaluate their future.
📸 One last family vacation before making a decision.
🎄 Giving families time to adjust before the holidays.

You often hear the term “visitation” on TV 📺, in movies 🎬, and on social media 📱, but in Arizona, the correct legal term is “parenting time. It’s often one of the most emotionally challenging and heavily contested parts of divorce, as it determines how time is shared between parents and their children. 📅👪

When parents are unable to agree ❌🤝 on a parenting plan, the court ⚖️ may be required to step in and establish a parenting time arrangement that serves the child’s best interests. 🧒💖

📖 Our new blog breaks down exactly how these decisions are made and what factors are considered.

🚨 One of the biggest mistakes you can make during a divorce is taking legal advice from the person you're divorcing.

Some spouses try to convince the other party that there's no need to speak with an attorney because the process will be simple, and they can work everything out on their own. 💔⚖️

However, divorce involves significant legal and financial matters that can affect your future for years to come. Before agreeing to anything, make sure you fully understand your rights and options. 📑💰
