The foremost concern in any child custody dispute across the United States is the best interests of the child. In Pennsylvania, during any custody trial, the judge must weigh and balance 16 different factors to determine what is in the best interests and permanent welfare of your child.
However, in these highly emotional custody disputes, while the judges and the attorneys may be the legal experts, the parents are the expert witnesses who know their child better than anyone else, and they will always be in the best position to make decisions on behalf of the child.Unfortunately, in many cases, parents cannot reach a custody agreement and the dispute must move forward to trial.

If a child custody order is violated, then you need to immediately take legal action. First, you (or your attorney) should file a Petition for Contempt with the court and allege an intentional violation of the order. If the other party is found to be in contempt, then the judge can impose a number of sanctions including imprisonment, probation, a fine, court costs and attorney fees.
People who struggle with an addiction to drugs or alcohol are at risk of being arrested for driving under the influence, but even a single bad night for a social drinker can lead to a DUI charge. In Pennsylvania, your DUI arrest may be based on controlled substances, blood alcohol content or a general impairment of safe driving.
