Parenting Plan Attorney Everett WA
Regardless of whether you landed on this page for unmarried parents, divorcing or divorced parents, or for a modification of an existing order, there is a point that needs to be addressed. The point is that of protection and restraining orders. If either of these types of orders are connected to your case or possibly could become part of your case, it turns it into a much different type of case. We are experienced regardless of which direction or case has started or goes.

Unmarried Parents
These type of cases are considered a parentage case. Sometimes you would need to file a petition for a parenting plan, other times to establish the who the other parent is. This also includes parent de facto types of cases. Parentage cases are not only very similar to divorce cases, but they are also very different. Unmarried parents have rights. Parentage cases fall into to major categories for biological parents, whether the father is or is not on the birth certificate. If both parents are on the birth certificate, I would suggest getting a copy as soon as possible because they are needed when filing this type of action.
Modification
Modification are a similar but very different than obtaining your first parenting plan such as in divorce or first time parentage actions. These types of cases require that a burden be met before change can be had. To learn more about modifications, explore my topic on that.
Divorce
Divorce with children requires special orders be entered in regards to the children, such as parenting plan and child support orders. Therefore, I have a suggesting to all, not matter where in the process you are. Do your absolute best in trying to be amicable at all times with the other party. There are really two different reasons for this. First, it becomes much more complicated of a case when these types of orders become necessary. Last and most importantly, the children in these cases suffer if there is a need for these types of orders or if false allegations by the parties are made against each other. In the end, it is the children that matter most, and they are the most fragile emotionally.
Contempt of Court
Being in contempt can result in losing time with the children, decision making, or even custody. Both parties are encouraged to follow the parenting plan, and get in writing, text, or email any agreed deviation from what is ordered.
