Stamford, CT Child Custody and Visitation Lawyers Make Divorce Easier on Families
Divorce can be especially difficult for children: many of them simply don’t understand what is happening, or that it isn’t their fault. It is important that as you go through the process, you work with a divorce law firm that understands the emotional stress and pain that individuals often undergo in family law proceedings, one that is compassionate to your cause and that does everything in the best interest of the children’s well-being. At Connecticut’s Mark M. Kratter, LLC., their team offers clients support and guidance throughout the case, always considering the children while pursuing clients’ objectives.
Issues of child custody and visitation are usually the most heart-rending aspects of a divorce case. We help you create plans for child custody, time-sharing, parenting time and visitation, spousal support, and division of assets and debts. Mark M. Kratter, LLC’s family law attorneys fight for you every step of the way.
As your divorce and child custody attorneys in the state of Connecticut, our lawyers will pursue your rights with skill and persuasiveness.

Working with Families to Create Positive Parenting Plans
In the state of Connecitcut, parenting plans are the norm in the court system. A parenting plan is a custody and visitation arrangement that incorporates and adopts the terms regarding legal custody and physical custody found in the child custody arrangement. A parenting plan may be set up either according to a fixed schedule or in some cases, with a more flexible arrangement, depending on how willing the parties are to negotiating with each other as life and all of its changes ebb and flow.
Our Connecticut parenting plan attorneys work out a plan with you that accommodates to the child’s schedule, including any and all extra-curricular activities and appointments, and it also takes into account the work schedule and time commitments of each parent. Our parenting plans also make clear decisions about which birthdays are celebrated at which household, how trips will be dealt with, whose extended family the child will spend certain holidays with, and how school vacations will be spent. We take care of any and all questions, so nothing is left unanswered, or left up to interpretation. Since 1993, we have found that clarity is the best policy.
We also work with you after the divorce, if and when any modifications needs to be made to the agreements. Having an attorney on hand who knows you and your case can make any modifications much simpler and more efficient.
