Modern Arizona
Should teens decide which parent they live with?
Should teens be allowed – by law – to decide which parent they should live with after a divorce? Legislators are looking at a bill in Arizona that may upset some divorcing parents who find themselves with no parenting time even though they are considered “fit parents.”
This episode of the Modern Divorce Podcast, with host Billie Tarascio, features Laura Chapman, a seasoned family law attorney to talk about the realities of divorce, including a candid discussion into the proposed state legislation that would allow teens to choose which parent they live with - and why that may bring some unintended consequences with longterm effects.
Laura's decade-long tenure in Maricopa County's courts informs her compassionate approach to guiding clients through the complexities of family law. As they explore the post-COVID landscape of family law practice, topics range from the virtues and challenges of virtual court appearances to the pivotal role of digital tools in client support.
The episode not only unveils Laura's professional ethos but also offers a glimpse into her personal life as a young single mother, from soccer matches with her daughters to engaging in fitness challenges.
