I doubt that your cheating will make that much of a difference in deciding child custody. But there are variations in the law, from one state to another, and all the facts of your case can be important. For advice that you can rely on, you need to have the whole situation reviewed by an attorney in your area. One place to find a qualified lawyer is our website, http://attorneypages.com
Most divorce courts today don't use child custody decisions to punish one parent or the other, the focus is on the best interests of the child.
IMPORTANT NOTICE: The Answer(s) provided above are for general information only. The attorney providing the answer was not serving as the attorney for the person submitting the question or in any attorney-client relationship with such person. Laws may vary from state to state, and sometimes change. Tiny variations in the facts, or a fact not set forth in a question, often can change a legal outcome or an attorney's conclusion. Although AttorneyPages.com has verified the attorney was admitted to practice law in at least one jurisdiction, he or she may not be authorized to practice law in the jurisdiction referred to in the question, nor is he or she necessarily experienced in the area of the law involved. Unlike the information in the Answer(s) above, upon which you should NOT rely, for personal advice you can rely upon we suggest you retain an attorney to represent you.
