S9 Ep26: What if My Ex and I Disagree On School Decisions?

#ChooseGoldman Choosing the right school is a major parenting decision that often leads to conflict when parents share custody. While sole custody grants one parent decision-making power, joint legal custody requires mutual agreement or a judge's intervention to settle the dispute. • Joint legal custody generally requires both parents to agree on school enrollment and major educational choices. • If parents cannot agree, the court will intervene and a judge will decide the school based on the child's best interest. • A parent with sole legal custody has the authority to choose the school without needing the other parent's consent. • Parents should attempt mediation and document all communications before filing a motion in court. • The court's decision may not please either parent, making it risky to leave the choice to a judge. 📞 (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/jYMbeiPGajM  For more information: https://akivagoldman.com/michigan-child-custody-lawyer/joint-custody-michigan  ⬇️ Download Divorce & Custody Survival Guide.
