Phoenix Children Interviews Attorney

Gillespie, Shields & Durrant

When people are going through a divorce or separation, one issue that may arise is child custody.  Parents who are divorcing will have to address who will get physical and /or legal custody of the children.  In some cases, parents may agree to joint custody and will be able to resolve details through mediation or conciliation.  However, in other cases, parents may have a difficult time reaching mutual decisions and will need the courts to intervene.

Before the courts get involved, many parents will choose to hire a family lawyer who deals exclusively with child custody cases.  One of the things that the attorney may suggest is that the child is interviewed by a neutral source.  Children interviews are very common during child custody cases and are used by both sides to demonstrate the child’s preference and which type of custody arrangement would be in the best interests of the child.  However, in order for children interviews to work, the interview must be conducted by an unbiased therapist, counselor or attorney.

At Gillespie, Shields & Durrant, one of the any services we offer at our Phoenix child custody firm is children interviews.  We understand that children interviews greatly impact the outcome of child custody cases.  For this reason, we always remain neutral when conducting interviews with children that will be used during legal proceedings.
