Tulsa Emergency Custody Attorneys
Emergency Custody Proceedings
Emergency custody requests ask a court to consider prompt relief based on the circumstances presented. Mortazavi & Bennett represents clients in Tulsa and throughout Oklahoma in emergency custody proceedings and related family law cases. Whether emergency action is available depends on the allegations, existing orders, procedural posture, evidence, and applicable law. Ordinary parenting disagreements and immediate-safety allegations are not evaluated in the same way, so the actual facts and documents require careful review.
Evaluating the Record
The record may include prior custody orders, pending pleadings, police or incident reports, medical or school information, photographs, electronic communications, witness accounts, and a chronology of recent events. The attorneys evaluate what information is available, what can be authenticated and lawfully presented, whether related proceedings are pending, and which disputed facts are likely to require testimony. A focused record is more useful than a large collection of unorganized messages or allegations.
Court Preparation
Emergency custody proceedings can lead to expedited filings, an initial court decision, a contested hearing, or related requests concerning custody and parenting time. The exact process depends on the court and the posture of the case. The firm prepares clients for filings, evidence, witness testimony, and follow-up proceedings while avoiding promises about relief or timing. If someone is in immediate danger, call 911.
