Custody disputes at Vänersborg District Court

When parents cannot agree on custody, residence or contact, the matter can be decided by a court. If the child lives in Trollhättan, the case is normally heard by Vänersborg District Court (Vänersborgs tingsrätt), which also handles cases from Vänersborg, Lilla Edet, Grästorp and Mellerud, among others.

Before the court decides, the family law unit (familjerätten) in the child's municipality is often asked to hold cooperation talks or carry out an investigation. We help you prepare for the talks and the preliminary hearing, and represent you in court if needed. The child's best interests are always the starting point.

How we can help

We advise on joint and sole custody, the child's residence, alternating residence, contact and interim decisions. We also check whether your home insurance legal protection or legal aid may cover part of the costs.

Every case is unique and we cannot promise a particular outcome, but we can give you a clear picture of your options and next steps.

Remote meetings or in Gothenburg

Most of the work in a custody dispute can be handled by phone, video and email, so you do not need to travel to get help. If you prefer to meet in person, you are welcome at our Gothenburg office, close to Trollhättan.
