Evaluations
When parents are unable to resolve custody and/or parenting time issues and need additional help, Anne is experienced in providing the following evaluative services:
- Custody and Parenting Time Evaluations with evaluation of all of the Best Interests Factors
- Focused Custody and/or Parenting Time Evaluation based on only those Best Interests Standards that are at issue
- Parenting Time Assessments
- Interviews with Children who are the subject of the above.
An evaluator for the above services is a neutral individual either agreed upon by the parents. If the parties cannot agree, a court may appoint an evaluator.
The costs for these services vary with a Custody and Parenting Time Evaluation requiring the most intensive time and evaluative response to more focused custody and or parenting time assessments or interviews with children. These services provide additional information to parents in assisting them in resolving their custody and parenting time issues and if they are unable to resolve them, then Anne may be called as an expert witness in a Court proceeding.
