Tim Reeb Secures Custody Win for Mother After Lengthy Trial

A Hard-Fought Victory for a Devoted Mother

After a three-and-a-half-week trial this summer, attorney Tim Reeb achieved a major success in a highly contested divorce and custody case. Representing the mother, Mr. Reeb successfully defended her parental rights and secured a parenting schedule that closely aligned with her requests.

The father had sought equal (50/50) parenting time, arguing that such an arrangement was in the child’s best interests. Over the course of trial, Mr. Reeb presented extensive evidence and compelling testimony demonstrating that the proposed arrangement would not provide the stability or consistency the children needed.

Court Rejects Father’s Request for Equal Parenting Time

After hearing weeks of testimony, reviewing exhibits, and considering expert input, the court rejected the father’s request for equal parenting time. Instead, the judge adopted a parenting schedule that reflected the mother’s proposed plan, emphasizing continuity, predictability, and the child’s overall well-being.

“This case required extraordinary preparation and endurance,” said Reeb. “We spent weeks in trial addressing every aspect of the child’s life — school, health, and emotional needs. I’m proud that the court recognized what was truly best for this family.”

Dedication and Results in Complex Family Law Litigation

The trial result underscores Mr. Reeb’s ability to handle complex, high-stakes litigation with precision and persistence. His strategic approach and attention to detail helped ensure the client’s position was clearly understood and ultimately upheld by the court.
