Child custody and support are handled separately from property division and are based on the best interests of the children. California courts generally aim for shared custody, often a 50/50 split, to keep both parents involved. Child support is usually paid by the higher-income earner to help maintain the child’s standard of living. The court’s priority is making sure the children remain in a stable financial and emotional environment.
