Child Custody

Child Custody Lawyer in Morristown

Dedicated Family Law Representation

Child custody cases are often referred to as child custody "battles" simply because they can be fraught with emotion, anxiety, and disagreement. No parent wants to see their child taken from them or feel that they are being forced to split parenting time with an ex-spouse. In these situations, it is vital that you retain the representation of a dedicated lawyer who understands your situation yet is aggressive enough to fight to help you obtain the best possible outcome for your case.

Attorney Troy L. Bowlin, II and the team at our firm listen to your needs and can help you establish a strong case that can provide you with the best possible resolution to your custody proceedings in Knoxville, Morristown and Knox County.

In most child custody cases, the courts will consider a few options. A minor child, particularly one under the age of 12, will be placed into the custody of a parent who is deemed the more "fit" parent. Job stability, proximity to schools, move-away requests and the child's relationship with the child will all be determining factors in the case. In the state of Tennessee, you may be awarded joint custody or sole custody in your case. In any custody case, parents need to establish a visitation schedule and ensure that both parties uphold their ends of the schedule. Intricacies surrounding the law in Tennessee regarding custody, visitation and child support make it important to work with an attorney.

Client Testimonials

We work within our clients time frames, guidelines & unique budgets
    Mr. Bowlin represented me on an assault charge. My bond conditions wouldn't allow me to go home to my husband and children. The day after my arrest, on a Sunday, Troy met with me and my family to discuss my unfortunate arrest. The very next morning Mr. Bowlin was able to get my bond conditions lifted allowing me to go home to my family. His office went above and beyond the call of duty which resulted in a dismissal of my charge.

    I will never forget the time Mr. Bowlin came to visit me in jail on a Sunday. It was Fathers day and he was the first one to wish me Happy Fathers Day. Mr. Bowlin does not know how much that meant.

    A few years ago I was addicted to drugs. My addiction led me to steal and eventually I caught a few criminal charges. Troy Bowlin took my case. I spent time in jail for a little while as my bond was revoked. Troy immediately started working on getting me released and helping me through the release process. Troy was finally able to get me released to a 45-day rehab facility versus spending more time in jail. The rehab was a wonderful experience on my road to sobriety. Once I left rehab, the court appearances began. Troy was always present and on time. He would even be there early to discuss with me what would probably happen before court began. This was very comforting because when you are facing felony charges, court is very nerve-wracking. Troy was able to get me two years unsupervised probation. Based on the charges I had incurred this was short of a miracle. The two years gave me time to evaluate my life and become clean and sober. After the two years, Troy filed for judicial diversion. Once this was done, I have absolutely no charges on my record today. From where I started to where I ended up is all because of Troy's hard work. I find myself very lucky to have been blessed with this kind of caliber of lawyer. If it wasn't for Troy I would not be starting Nursing School in the fall. My future is bright now and my path is clear. If it was not for Troy I would not be as successful as I am now.
