Complex Custody Case Lawyers in Pennsylvania
Sophisticated Handling of Complex Child Custody Cases
Child custody and parenting plans are often some of the most difficult and contentious components of a divorce that a parent will face. This already emotionally charged matter can become more complicated by a wide variety of circumstances and family dynamics, ranging from behavioral and health issues of one parent to relocations. If you are involved in a complex custody case, it is important that you are represented by a law firm with the experience and recognized skill to get results for you as a parent, while advocating for the best interests of the child.
At Cognetti Law Group, located near Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, our attorneys have devoted more than 100 years of combined experience to fighting for parents through negotiation and litigation. Often the court encounters mothers seeking primary custody of the children; however, there is an increasing number of fathers petitioning for more parenting time. If you feel that the other party should not be allowed custody, or should have limited custody of the children, we will help to investigate those reasons and provide the court proof. Our attorneys will ensure that custody evaluations are conducted if needed, analyzing many factors that would impact the other parent’s ability to parent. Some of the most common complexities that arise in a custody case include:
- Mental health issues
- Drug and alcohol dependency or abuse
- Physical, sexual, emotional or verbal abuse by anyone who would be around the child
- Relocation
In other cases, a parent who has been absent for a period in the child’s life may suddenly seek to get involved and granted custody. We will closely investigate these circumstances and present a compelling case to the court on our clients’ behalf. Our firm also handles custody cases involving military families where one or both spouses are deployed or forced to move on a routine basis, stationed far away from the child’s home. For a consultation to discuss your case and how an attorney handling custody matters can help, please contact our Pennsylvania firm today at 717-909-4060.
Reviews & Testimonials

"I am truly thankful I had you and your team of professionals on my side."
I wanted to thank you for representing me and handling my divorce, and child custody arrangement a few years ago.

"I am very grateful for her and her staff."
Maria was tough! I now understand why. Allowing her to do what she felt was best for me, gave me a settlement in favor of me rather than paying out.

There is no way I would have made it through this life-changing ordeal without Cognetti & Associates! I’ve had several folks ask me who represented me and I’ve gladly shared.

"She is responsive, decisive, and most importantly, honest about the legal process and expectations."
Her support staff is also phenomenal, from her receptionist to her highly skilled (and very kind) paralegal. I never thought I’d need a family law attorney, but I am so glad I have her.
- E.D. -
"Maria and her associates are beyond exceptional!!"
Between her tenacity and intellect, she took me from paying out $110,000 to $50,000 and ending with saving me $65,000 in my divorce settlement.
- D.C. -
"My expectations were not only met but exceeded."
Two years (sic) I needed a divorce attorney and Cognetti and Associates came highly recommended. They got me exactly what I needed.
