  • Parents Face New Custody Conundrums in Midst of COVID-19 Pandemic
    6/1/2020 | By: Allen A. Drexel, Esq.| Sarah R. Gersowitz, Esq.

    One of the effects of COVID-19 has been a sharp increase in child custody disputes in New York and across the country. As issues related to custody and parental access escalate, so do long-lasting and unintended implications for parents, children, and their caregivers. Courts across the country have begun grappling with these issues even as they have been partially closed due to the pandemic, and we anticipate that they will continue to do so now that the court system has started reopening.
