In discussing the custody factors, this book will give you tips about what specific kinds of information the court will be looking for, what facts can help or hurt your case, and how to present evidence in your case in support of each custody factor. Chapter 4 addresses several special issues that arise in child custody cases. If one of these special issues applies to your case, Chapter 4 will give you suggestions about how to best address your special issue and what evidence and witnesses may be key to winning your case. Chapter 5 discusses alternatives to litigation, and why resolving your case outside of the courtroom with the help of a mediator or collaborative team may produce a better result for your family than anything a judge could rule.
