WomensLaw serves and supports all survivors.
Kentucky judges cannot consider your deployment by itself to decide what is in the best interests of your child. This is true for past deployments and for any possible future deployments. However, the judge is allowed to consider any significant impact your military deployment may have on your child’s best interests.1
