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.
Physical custody refers to where the child lives, and how much time the child spends with each parent. Depending on the laws of the state, the court may award sole custody, joint custody, or primary physical custody. With sole custody, the child only lives with one parent, while the other parent may have scheduled visitation or parenting time.
