FINANCIAL COACHING: HOW CAN IT HELP YOU?
WHAT HAPPENS IF YOU HAVE A CHANGE OF HEART?
WHAT IF YOU AND YOUR CO-PARENT DISAGREE ON HEALTHCARE DECISIONS?
Assuming you and your co-parent share joint legal custody over your minor child(ren), that means you each have equal rights to their medical information, records, appointments and major decision-making. Often times, divorced parents have different views on healthcare (i.e., vaccines, procedures, prescriptions). If joint legal custodial parents cannot agree on major medical decisions, they go to court to battle these issues (which is often very expensive, time consuming and emotionally draining). Most often, courts will follow the accepted standards of medical experts and healthcare professionals. If you would like to discuss these sensitive family law issues or any others so you can be as informed as possible, please contact us.
