How do Wisconsin courts decide custody and placement? In this Wisconsin Family Law Insider episode, our managing partner Holly Mullin breaks down this critical process.
We clarify:
- The important distinction between custody (decision-making authority) and placement (physical time with children)
- The step-by-step process courts follow - from required mediation to guardian ad litem investigations
- Factors judges consider when determining a child's best interests
- Why less than 5% of cases actually go to trial despite initial disagreements
Listen in for a practical understanding of how these crucial decisions are made, including realistic timelines that can stretch beyond a year in contested cases. This foundational knowledge is essential for parents facing custody and placement issues in Wisconsin.
