Child Custody

Child custody matters are among the most emotionally challenging issues in family law. When parents disagree about custody or support, the outcome can shape a child’s future and a parent’s relationship with their child. At James & Bradley Law Firm, we represent parents throughout Covington, Tangipahoa, St. Tammany, Washington Parish, Franklinton, and Slidell, helping them protect their parental rights while prioritizing the best interests of their children.

Louisiana courts determine custody based on what arrangement best serves the child’s physical, emotional, and developmental needs. Judges evaluate numerous factors, including parental stability, the child’s relationship with each parent, and each parent’s ability to provide a safe and supportive environment.

Our attorneys help clients understand how these factors apply to their case, and work to present strong, well-supported custody proposals to the court.

James & Bradley Law Firm assists parents in all custody matters, including:

Whether you are seeking custody, modifying an existing arrangement, or responding to a custody challenge, our legal team is prepared to advocate on your behalf.

We provide clear guidance, strategic advocacy, and steady support throughout the process. Our focus is not only on legal outcomes, but on helping families move forward with stability and confidence.
