Child Custody & Visitation

8. Continue...
In North Carolina, the court takes into consideration many factors when
deciding custody of children. Theses factors include the needs of the
children, the family dynamics, and the cooperation and interaction the
children have with the parents. Ultimately, the deciding factor hinges on what
is in the best interest of the children. Depending on the circumstances,
parents can be awarded:
•Joint Custody: This type of custody involves an arrangement where,
typically, the children primarily live with one parent and visit the other parent.
It also involves joint decision-making and information sharing between the
parents.
•Shared Custody: This type of custody involves an arrangement wherein
both parents split time with the children equally.
•Sole Custody: This type of custody involves one parent being awarded
complete custody and sole decision-making authority over the children.
