Description

In this episode of Family Law Talk, Kirk Stange discusses the fact that in many states, pets are considered property, and courts typically award ownership to the spouse who primarily cares for the pet. Factors like daily care, financial ability, and emotional bonds are considered. Unlike child custody, shared pet custody is uncommon, but couples can agree on private arrangements.
