S7 Ep45: Can I Request a Change In Custody Based on My Child's Preference?

#ChooseGoldman In this episode, we discuss how Michigan courts handle child custody requests based on a child's preference. It's important to understand the rules and the factors that influence custody decisions, including the age at which a child's preference is considered.  • A child's preference isn't the deciding factor in custody cases   • Courts consider the child's preference only after they reach around 12 years old   • The court may keep the child's preference confidential   • Custody decisions are based on the best interest of the child, not solely their wishes   • If a child is influenced or coached, it may affect the weight given to their preference 📞 (248) 590-6600 Call/Text   📅 For a Complimentary Phone Case Evaluation: https://app.acuityscheduling.com/schedule.php?owner=17105687&appointmentType=18529428   Click here to watch the video: https://youtu.be/yZhcuZJQczE  For more information: https://www.choosegoldmanlaw.com/child-custody/    ⬇️ Download Divorce & Custody Survival Guide.
