Father's Rights Attorney

What are Father's Rights?

When you are in the process of getting a divorce many times the father in the family feels he does not have the same rights as the mother.  This may have been the case in the past, but is no longer the situation under the laws of Iowa currently.  A father plays as important a role in the raising of his children as the mother does, and should have the same access and rights to his children as the mother.  In situations where any divorce issues are contested, whether it be child support, child visitation, child custody, visitation, or alimony - the father is entitled to equal rights.  If you find yourself having difficulties with your parental rights as a father, the experienced family law attorneys at McGuire Law Firm can assist you with fighting for your privileges as a parent.

In today's society many fathers are no longer the main breadwinners in a family.  In fact, many fathers choose to stay at home as much as possible to help raise their children.  Even families where both parents work outside the home, a father's rights to have joint or primary custody of his children are just as strong as the mother's.  When you have a persistent and dedicated paternal rights attorney working on your behalf, our legal team can ensure that you are given every opportunity to be a large factor in the raising of your children.
