Parenting Plans

Parenting Plans

A parenting plan helps protect your child's interests by providing a clear framework for all of their needs: custody schedules, parental rights and responsibilities, holiday arrangements, and more.

A good parenting plan is custom-built for your family's specific circumstances: the ages of your children, your work schedules, your geographic situation, and your goals as a co-parent. We help you build one that works now and grows with your family.

Family Law, Frequently Asked Questions

What family law matters does A&M Law handle?

We help clients with divorce, child custody and parenting plans, child support, spousal support, adoption, guardianships, and modifications of existing orders throughout Missoula and Western Montana.

How is child custody decided in Montana?

Montana courts base parenting decisions on the best interests of the child, weighing factors such as each parent's relationship with the child, stability, and the child's needs. We help you present your case clearly and protect your parenting time.

Do I have to go to court to get a divorce?

Not always. Many family law matters resolve through negotiation, mediation, or a cooperative process, which is often faster and less stressful. When a fair resolution is not possible, we are fully prepared to advocate for you in court.

What is a parenting plan?

A parenting plan is a court-approved written agreement that sets out each parent's residential schedule and how major decisions about the child will be made. We help you build a plan that works for your family and holds up over time.
