Q: In a divorce - if there has been domestic violence or family violence perpetrated by one spouse and his family….
And parental alienation by the husband and paternal grandparents who is manipulating the child against his mother. Is it likely the mother will get full physical custody and the father supervised visitation? Is it more likely the mother will get the home? This is in Georgia USA
A:
Its really hard to do a thorough analysis without full context, but Domestic Violence always grabs the attention of the Judge when looking at Family Law Cases.
At the same time, judges will almost always ensure both parents get substantial time with the child regardless of the criminal issues unless there has been violence against the child or violence in front of the child.
A: There’s no way for us to know this. We’d need to know all the facts of the case in order to provide you with more guidance. You should consult with an attorney who can help you with your case. The judge will make the final decision on such things after reviewing all the facts of the case.
