In Alaska the courts presume 50/50 - in other words that is where they start. Usually it must be something serious to have them vary from this formula. What they look at is the best interests of the child. There are a number of factors that are in the law that the courts follow to make this determination. An attorney can help you fight for custody so that it is fair to you.
