Legal Custody

During divorce proceedings, a court that has jurisdiction assigns the legal custody of the children of the marriage to the parents, legal guardians or in rare cases, to court appointed custodians. Courts assign legal custody as a way of offering the best opportunity and protection of the children. Many times, legal custody changes as parents petition to the courts to have legal custody changed.
