Gilbert Child Custody Dispute Lawyers
Parental kidnapping occurs when one party moves with the children without the other party knowing and consenting. At Cates, Hanson, Sargeant & Schoenau, PLC, we are experienced in handling parental kidnapping cases, bringing civil court orders and emergency court orders against the parent as needed. We take every action necessary to help our clients bring their children home.
Our experienced lawyers are aware of the highly sensitive nature of these cases. No parent should have to suffer through losing their child, and we will fight to protect our clients' interests. At the same time, we take into consideration the child's needs and their state of mind. Children may not understand the situation, and it could have a permanent effect on them. We take care to achieve positive results with as little harm as possible.
If your former spouse took your child away, you have every right to seek legal counsel and take action against him or her. We can help.
Parental Kidnapping Defense
In addition to family law, our Phoenix attorneys also practice criminal defense. While very few people face criminal charges for parental kidnapping, they could face custodial interference charges in family court. If criminal charges are brought, we can provide a strong defense. Our understanding of both sides of the matter allows us to anticipate and prepare for arguments whether in family law or criminal court. This helps give you a better chance for a favorable outcome.
