Understanding Child Custody Matters in Luling

Family court matters, including child custody cases, are heard at the 40th Judicial District Court, which is located at 2393 Highway 18, and represents parents in St. John the Baptist Parish. Luling, LA, has a young population with a median age of 38, and 27% of the population is under 18. When parents divorce, the courts require both parties to agree to the terms of custody. 

Disputes are common, and judges often make rulings on custody based on the best interests of the child. Judges may consider these and other factors:

• Each parent’s past involvement in the child’s care
• The stability of each parent’s home environment
• Each parent’s ability to meet the child’s physical and emotional needs
• The child’s age and developmental needs
• The willingness of each parent to support the child’s relationship with the other parent
• Any history of domestic violence, abuse, or neglect
• The mental and physical health of each parent

Given Louisiana’s divorce rate of 0.9 per 1,000 residents, many spouses in Luling must address these and other divorce-related matters every year.
