Child Custody: A Plan That Works for Your Family
Child custody cases can be emotionally charged and legally complex, particularly during separation or divorce. As an experienced family lawyer, we help parents navigate custody matters with sensitivity, clarity, and a strong focus on the child’s well-being.
Pennsylvania law places the best interests of the child at the centre of every custody decision, and our approach reflects this principle. We work closely with you to develop a practical custody arrangement that supports your child’s emotional and physical needs while minimising conflict and stress.
Whether you are going through a divorce or resolving a parenting dispute, our divorce lawyer works to protect your parental rights and create a stable, child-focused custody plan.
We handle all types of child custody cases, including:
- Physical Custody: Determining where the child will live and how much time they will spend with each parent.
- Legal Custody: Deciding who will make important decisions about the child’s education, health care, and welfare.
- Shared Custody: Crafting arrangements that allow both parents to be actively involved in their child’s life.
- Sole Custody: Advocating for your rights if one parent is seeking sole legal or physical custody.
- Modifications: Assisting with custody modifications if circumstances change or existing agreements need to be revisited.
At Gary J. Saylor, II, Esq., we believe that a fair and workable custody plan can provide your child stability and security during a time of upheaval.
Child Support: Ensuring Financial Stability for Your Children
Child support is essential to ensuring that your child has the resources they need to thrive. Pennsylvania courts use specific guidelines to calculate child support based on factors like each parent’s income, the child’s needs, and the custody arrangement. Gary J. Saylor, II, Esq. will work diligently to ensure that your child support agreement is fair and reflects your child’s best interests.
We provide legal guidance in all child support matters, including:
- Establishing Child Support: Ensuring that both parents contribute appropriately to their child’s financial well-being.
- Enforcement of Child Support Orders: Helping you enforce an existing child support order if the other parent fails to meet their obligations.
- Modifications of Child Support: Assisting with modifications to child support orders if there are significant changes in circumstances, such as income adjustments or changes in custody.
Our focus is on creating a child support agreement that is fair, sustainable, and in line with Pennsylvania law, while also prioritizing your child’s future.

Client Reviews
★★★★★
"Gary and his team were amazing! He did a divorce for my fiancé, whose now ex-wife, lives in NYC. He and his team were professional and never made us feel like we were bothering them with our questions. He charged us 1 price and never added to it. He was honest in all his dealings with us! As people who had no trust in lawyers, he earned ours!"
- Audia A.

If you are seeking counsel, you need someone who isn’t going to sugarcoat anything or lie to tell you what you want to hear. This man tells it as it is, and represents you to the best he can. 5 stars all the way."
