To file for joint custody of a child, you typically need to submit a petition to the family court in the county where the child resides. This petition should outline your request for joint custody and provide reasons why it is in the best interest of the child. You may also need to attend a court hearing to present your case. It is recommended to seek legal advice to ensure the process is done correctly.
