Legal decision-making and parenting time — Arizona's own words

Arizona's statute speaks LEGAL DECISION-MAKING (the authority to make major decisions) and PARENTING TIME (the schedule), determined in the child's best interests on all relevant factors — the parents' relationships with the child, adjustment, health, which parent facilitates contact with the other, domestic violence, and the rest of the statutory list.

The honesty note

Contested cases require specific findings on the record — courts weigh the factors; nothing here scores parents or predicts an allocation.

Do it with the tools

Legal information, not legal advice. Statements about county practice defer to your superior court's local requirements and the Self-Service Center — where this platform has no verified county data, it says so instead of guessing.
