What are Differences Between Legal and Residential Custody?

As an experienced New Jersey Child Custody Attorney I am often asked about legal and residential custody.

• Legal custody deals with the person or persons making the major decisions on behalf of the children
• Joint custody is when both parents make these decisions together
• Sole custody is when one parent makes decisions on the children’s behalf
