At Branch and Hurtt Law Firm, P.C., we are prepared, willing, and have the experience to handle your legal issue(s). You may research many of our cases on the Oklahoma Supreme Court Network (http://www.oscn.net/). Attorney Judith Ridgeway and the rest of our staff believes in the term counselor as it refers to being your lawyer. We cannot guarantee what a court will do, but we can explain what our courts have done in the past. We will vigorously support the welfare of your children in your Oklahoma family law or custody issue. As Cleveland and Oklahoma County family law attorneys, we believe that you should be involved in all the decisions pertaining to your case. Therefore, we will thoroughly explain your legal options and act as your guide to the family law and child custody system.
We believe that children need both parents and that the Divine Plan includes input from both a father and a mother in the rearing of children. The typical county visitation schedule which has one parent not seeing his or her child for 14 days is hard on the child. Small children do not have long-term memory capabilities. When you say, "We're going to see Barney on Thursday," all that the child understands is Barney. Small children do not understand Thursday. For this reason, frequent visits with both parents are best.
