The two types of custody are legal and physical custody. It is presumed by statute that legal custody will be joint. This presumption may be overcome by showing there has been domestic abuse between the parties or that there is no manner in which the parents can make major decisions regarding the children. For joint legal custody, the parents jointly decide significant matters in the child’s life such as education, healthcare, and religious upbringing. If it is a sole legal custody situation, one parent has the authority to make those decisions. Physical custody of a child refers to where the child primarily lives and the routine daily care of the child. Joint physical custody does not necessarily mean that the parents have fifty-fifty scheduling, but they are sharing the access of the child or children in some fashion.
