How to File for Full Custody in Missouri Complete the necessary forms. You must submit a Petition for Child Custody detailing your reasons for seeking sole custody. Serve the other parent. Attend a custody hearing. Await the courts decision.
However, circumstances can change, and a once amicable child custody arrangement can turn sour and messy. This is an issue because, in Missouri, one parent cannot legally keep a child from seeing the other parent without a court order.
Under the new law that goes into effect August 28, 2023, a divorce court must apply a rebuttable presumption that an award of equal time or approximately equal time is in the childrens best interests.
Introduction: - Introduce yourself (your name and age). - Briefly state the purpose of your letter (to request a change in custody). Body: - Explain Your Situation: Describe your current living situation and why you feel a change is necessary. Be honest about your feelings and experiences. Reasons for Change:
