Different Types of Custody. There are four main types of custody that you may be awarded during the child custody portion of the divorce process. They are: physical, legal, joint and split. The most common type of custody awarded is physical custody. Physical custody is awarded to the one parent that the children will be living with for a majority of the time.
Differentiating between custody and guardianship can be complicated because they are essentially the same thing. One distinction is that family courts usually grant custody orders, and probate courts grant guardianship orders. Custody is often an arrangement between parents pursuant to a divorce decree, determining which of them their child lives with and who makes important decisions on the childâs behalf.
