Is there a bias towards women in family law courts?

Believe it or not I hear this question so many times. In fact many men feel that they have no chance at getting custody of their children. The truth of the matter is; No, there is not a bias towards women in family law courts.

The primary goal for all Family Law Courts is to always have the child/rens' best interest at mind, whether it be with mother or father. The court must and always assess the family situation and involves family mediators to give an unbiased recommendation as to determine where the child/ren will be best cared for.

This can be a tricky situation and it is recommended that if there is a custody dispute that you retain the services of a local child custody lawyer.
