Helping Families Resolve Their Child Custody Disputes
One of the most contested issues in any divorce or paternity matter is child custody. Georgia law states that custody is awarded in the best interest of the children. As can be expected, mothers and fathers usually have strong and differing opinions of exactly what is in the best interest of the children and why.
If you are currently involved in a custody dispute, or if you are planning to file for divorce and you anticipate having difficulties agreeing on a custody arrangement, it is very important that you speak with an experienced child custody lawyer right away.
Divorce and custody is all we do, and we have become very good at what we do. The Shaw Law Firm, LLC, represents fathers and mothers across the Metro Atlanta area in contested custody matters. Contact us today for an honest assessment of your situation and the courtroom advocacy to fight for your rights and the best interests of your children.

Fighting for Custody or a Role in Your Child's Life
The Shaw Law Firm has represented countless clients throughout the Atlanta metro area in their custody disputes. Whether your goal is to obtain full custody (sole physical and legal custody), standard custody and visitation, joint custody (shared parenting time), or a customized solution, the Shaw Law Firm's priority is to help you achieve the custody arrangement that works best for you and your children.
We do not encourage clients to engage in expensive and bitter litigation, but the truth is that we are often called in because of our knowledge, experience and successful results in court. We routinely handle high-conflict custody cases in which clients expect a custody battle or have tried mediation without much progress. Even in the midst of contested proceedings, we strive to focus on what is in the best interests of the child and to remind parents that the outcome today will set the tone for the years of co-parenting ahead.
