Alternative dispute resolution (ADR) is a popular avenue for parents trying to arrange or modify custody agreements in California. Through ADR, you could achieve an official, legal custody modification without going to court. ADR is not a custody trial.
Child custody agreements arent always set in stone. California law recognizes that circumstances can change and there may be a need to modify a custody order from time to time. Importantly, neither parent can make changes to an existing custody agreement without the other parents consent or by order of the court.
The court will establish a date for both parents to discuss the requested modifications, which may be weeks or months after the request. However, once a couple receives this date, they can expect the judge to make their decision for approval at this hearing.
