Custody, Support & Visitation

Washington Child Custody Lawyers

Nothing is more important than the welfare of our children. At Cogdill Nichols Rein Wartelle Andrews, our Snohomish County firm, we are committed to that principle, and our attorneys help our clients develop sensible and creative parenting plans that allow children to maintain strong relationships with their parents. We represent residents and out-of-state clients in child custody proceedings in Washington State family courts from Seattle to Bellingham.

Each situation is unique. When assisting you with a custody action our attorney will explain your legal options and ways in which those options will affect your relationship with your child. When you have chosen a course of action we will provide skilled advocacy in negotiations and family court custody proceedings.

Our family law practice is prepared to handle all issues related to child custody, including the following:

• Negotiating a child custody and visitation plan that will allow you to have generous parenting time after your divorce
• Post-decree modification of child support and custody
• Residential schedules for unmarried parents
• Parental notification of relocation
• Third party custody actions

Whether you are beginning the painful process of divorce; there has been a significant change in circumstances since your initial parenting plan and you need to request a modification of your custody agreement; you need help with a parental relocation; or you have another issue related to custody of your child, our lawyers will provide the sound counsel necessary to protect your family.
