Child Custody

Child custody is one of the most challenging yet rewarding areas of the legal practice. Emotions commonly run high, and the continuity of a family unit is almost always at stake. A steady, thoughtful, and well-considered approach to every case is a necessity in order to achieve your desired results. Hendersonville child custody lawyer Gordon Langer understands what is on the line with these types of cases… everything. Nothing is more important to you than your children, and Gordon Langer remains committed to ensuring that your constitutionally guaranteed rights as a parent are protected. Mr. Langer will do everything in his power to fight vigorously and zealously on your behalf to make sure that your child or children’s best interests are realized.

Gordon Langer is one of the very few practicing Hendersonville child custody lawyers who is licensed to practice custody law in the State of North Carolina and the State of Florida. Mr. Langer can effectively handle interstate disputes between parties in North Carolina, Florida, and even beyond. With Mr. Langer’s counsel, you can rest assured that your interests are being properly cared for regardless of the opposing parent’s location.

When it comes to child custody, it is generally wise to first seek to obtain a mutually agreeable custody arrangement with the other parent. Even if you are able to do so, it may be a good idea to have that arrangement formalized in a binding Court Order, whether by consent or otherwise, that can be legally enforced in the future should one party decide not to abide by the terms of the agreement. It is amazing how much more likely it is that parent will conform to the terms of an agreement when he or she faces the specter of being held in contempt of court if he or she is non-compliant.

If the goal of amicably reaching an agreement becomes unattainable due to the lack of cooperation by the opposing parent, you may need to take your case into the courtroom in order to enforce your rights. While Gordon Langer first pursues cooperative parental agreements, he will not hesitate to advocate on your behalf with litigation if the need arises. Mr. Langer will work closely with you and offer his professional guidance to allow you to move forward with your case in the manner that best suits your individual needs.

There are numerous other issues that often arise in the context of child custody matters, including, but not limited to, grandparent rights (believe it or not, under certain circumstances, grandparents may have limited rights to visitation of your child or children); caretaker rights; mediation; arbitration; settlements; child support guidelines and deviations from those guidelines; visitation schedules; educational decision making and medical decision making for the child or children; child abuse and child neglect; and too many other issues to list here in full. Many of these issues will often apply in a single case, and all of these issues must be dealt with thoroughly and accurately.
