There are four different types of custody that may be awarded to a parent:

• Physical Custody – This is where a child will live and spend most of their time.
• Legal Custody – Awarded to whichever parent(s) will make major decisions for a child, examples of decisions include: medical care, education and religion.
• Sole Custody – When one parent is only awarded both physical and legal custody. The other parent may receive visitation.
• Joint Custody – Both parents may equally share in the physical custody and legal custody of the child.
