Commonly Asked Questions about Washington Family Law

ing to a report from the Washington State Center for Court Research, the most commonly reported balance of parenting time was 50/50 between mother and father, with nearly 21 percent of cases. However, in nearly two-thirds of all the cases, children spent more residential time with their mothers.
If you are the childs legal father, you have the same rights as your childs mother, including the right to: Notice - advance notice of all court hearings. Contest allegations - a chance to admit or deny any allegations of abuse or neglect that are made against you.
Washington prioritizes the needs of the child, and there are many scenarios in which evenly shared custody works best for the child. Washington does not have a specific law that gives a 50/50 custody presumption. However, the state does promote joint custody in many cases.
A court in Washington State will usually a) award each party his or her own separate property and b) divide the net value of the parties community property 50/50. This means the husband keeps what he brought to the marriage, the wife keeps what she brought, and the rest gets split between them equally.
The law presumes you are both parents to a child born during your marriage or domestic partnership, or within 300 days after your marriage or domestic partnership ends (or your spouse dies). The spouse or partner is a presumed parent (RCW 26.26A. 115(1)(a)).
The judge is obligated to follow Washington law, which says that the courts must allow the relocation unless the parent who filed the objection can prove that the benefit of the relocation to both the child and the custodial parent is outweighed by the negative effects.
