Contested custody refers to a situation in which two or more parties, typically parents or guardians, dispute the legal custody of a child following separation or divorce. This often involves disagreements over where the child will live and who will make important decisions regarding the child's upbringing. The matter may be resolved through negotiation, mediation, or court intervention, depending on the circumstances and the willingness of the parties to reach an agreement. Ultimately, the court's primary concern is the best interests of the child.
