Fathers do have rights when it comes to a variety of issues related to divorce; child custody, child visitation, spousal support and visitation. But, in addition to the advice offered by their attorney, many fathers are unsure of where they can turn for information, resources and support. In the past, custody was often awarded solely to the mother of the child or children involved in the divorce. Today, both parent s have equal rights and the opportunity to apply for and win full custody, or joint custody arrangements. Fathers right support groups and organizations can provide information on how to strengthen the case for custody. Fathers can search for resources online as there are multiple national and local non-profit groups which have been organized for the primary purpose of providing support for father's rights.
