Once a rarity, divorce is becoming more common every day. According to recent U.S. Census Bureau divorce statistics, almost 2.5 million people get divorced each year. Many of these divorces involve children and complex child custody cases. According to the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS), nearly 75% of child custody awards are made to the mother. Approximately 10% of child custody awards are made to fathers, and the rest involve some sort of joint custody arrangement. As you know, child custody cases require special handling to ensure the needs of the child are first and foremost in all decisions. Arkansas Investigations has a reputation for handling child custody issues delicately and discreetly.
