Arizona Child Custody Laws
In Arizona, custody arrangements are always made in the best interests of the child. Generally, this means that both parents maintain joint legal custody of their children. Joint legal custody refers to both parents having an equal say in how their children are raised; it does not necessarily mean that parents will share joint physical custody.

Physical custody involves the actual living arrangements of the child and the rights and responsibilities of daily care. If a parent is not granted physical custody of his or her child, that parent is entitled to visitation rights.
