In most custody battles, the winner is the parent who can best demonstrate that they serve the childs best interests. While mothers still win more cases overall, the gap has narrowed as fathers play a greater role in raising their children.
Courts cannot discriminate against a parent based on gender. Yet the best-interest-of-the-child standard is more likely to favor mothers since they are often the primary caregivers for children. For a father in a custody battle, proving parental fitness is key.
To petition for and win sole legal custody, you have to prove that it is in your childs interests. If you can prove that your co-parent is unfit, unable to care for the childs basic needs, or a danger to the health and welfare of the child, the court may consider this reason to award you sole legal custody.
