OKLAHOMA Part 40

How do we decide visitation or time-sharing?

Oklahoma law sets forth a policy that supports children having frequent and continuing contact with both parents. It is always in a child's best interests when parents who live separately can agree on how to share physical time with the children. Emotions can cloud a good parent's judgment in this circumstance. When parents cannot agree, the court will impose a specified minimum amount of visitation between the non-custodial parent and the children. The order will encourage additional visitations and encourage liberal telephone communications between the non-custodial parent and the child.
