Child Custody & Visitation

San Jose Child Custody Attorney

Children are often the focal point of negotiations or litigation in many divorces. But many times, they can end up being treated as if they were property and not as the human beings that they really are.

As a parent myself, and as your lawyer, I will never lose sight of that fact.

At the Law Offices of Peter R. Hubert, I have been helping parents and children find custody solutions throughout San Jose, the Silicon Valley, and the San Francisco Bay Area for over 30 years. With every unique situation and family that I serve, my goal is always to find the solutions that are going to be right for you and your children's futures.

• Sunnyvale Visitation Lawyer
• Custody and visitation-related issues that I handle include:
• 730 evaluations
• Joint custody and/or primary custody negotiations and litigation
• Custody modifications
• Move-away / relocation cases
• Domestic partnership custody and visitation cases
• Paternity / DNA testing
• Visitation schedules and modifications / grandparents' rights
• Child support agreements and support modifications

California courts use a "best interests of the child" standard in dealing with these difficult family law cases. This essentially recognizes the fact that children have two parents for a reason and that, except in abusive or dangerous situations, some degree of shared parenting time is highly beneficial to the children.

But even if the court decides that your child's best interest is with your spouse or partner, it does not mean, in any way, that you are not a parent anymore. If this happens in your situation, I will strenuously advocate for your rights as a parent in order to achieve the most favorable visitation terms possible.
