Parallel to one's personality, a person's character is something that cannot be judged immediately. It takes quite some time to figure out what character a person has. Character is one's true self. It is a result of their mindset, their beliefs. Sometimes, it can be fascinating, but sometimes, it can also be ugly. Hence, it is very important to figure out a person's character before you trust them with something big.

Since an official confirmation of one's decent character ensures one quality of being a human, a character certificate is often required in some of the important processes in life, one of which is the case of child custody.
A character certificate helps the judge to determine what kind of a person is someone, and whether or not they are eligible to meetthe child's interests and needs as well as able to provide the child with the necessities of life.
This judgment is based on certain factors, so it is important to know how to portray the defendant's character in court to make it a win.
If you are looking for sample letters needed to make your reference letter stand out and authorized, then you are exactly where you needto be because, in this guide, we are going to tell you about how to write acharacter reference letter for a court child custody.
Here are some of the factors that you need to consider while drafting the reference letter:
It is very important to know the interests of the child to make your defendant look more reliable and responsible for a certain criteria. You can determine the best interest of the child by considering the following:
If the child has developed a stronger bond with any one of the parents due to the absence of the other during most of the time in their lives, this is considered and it affects the judgment. In such a case,the absentee parent is more likely to be considered for the visitingallowance only and that with the responsibility of paying the child support.
If the opposite parent has shown a lacking in the child's life as a responsible folk, this can be used against them in a very purposeful manner, supporting the defendant's case.
If the court figures out that the defendant, at any point,has abused or even become a threat to the child, the decision will not be in favor of the subject.
However, if a false allegation is put on the defendant by theother parent or vice versa, then upon determining it, the court will decide in terms with that; the person who has put the allegation would be at loss.
When a person is under the influence of drugs, they are morelikely to lose their control and cross their limits. This is considered to be a threat to the child's safety. Hence, it is important for the parent, willing to get custody of the child, to stay clean and away from drugs or anyother bad influence.
A witness is said to be someone who has practically seen and observed a certain situation. Given the relevant circumstances, a witness in a child's custody case is someone who can testify to the defendant's good and reliable relationship with the child. The court is abided by the law to take witnesses under consideration before concluding. So, to strengthen your defendant's case, we suggest you gather a witness or two who can testify your statements.
However, make sure that the witnesses, themselves, are reliable people with a proper character, otherwise, the situation can go against you and the tables can easily be turned.
This is a complete guide, and to make it possible, we have gathered some templates as well as some samples for you to take ideas from. If you relate to the samples, with little to no effort, and just a little bit of editing, you can make the templates yours!

Respected Sir,
I ,Katherine Jacob, mother of a 13 years old son, Otis Jacob, want to bring my child custody case to your knowledge. I and my ex-husband, Jacob Fleming, got married back in 2005. We started our lives together as any other happy couple, and more to our blessings, Otis came into our lives in 2007. We were really happy with how things were working out between us as a family, but as time passed, my relationship with my husband started getting toxic; however, for the sake of Otis, we decided to try our best to save our marriage. It was until2019 that we realized the need to separate our ways for either of our betterment.
The main reason behind the toxicity was his absence in the life of Otis as a responsible father. He failed to keep his promises. He was never there to cherish the first steps of our child, neither he was there when he made it to the baseball team. Otis realized it too, and as a result, he got closer to me. Now that it is the matter of our child's custody, I urge you to take a deep look into the matter as well as ask Otis about his willingness regarding being with either of us.
Taking a look at the previous official records of Jacob Fleming, it is also seen that he has been into drugs and abuse. I don't think that my child will be safe with a person like him. Whereas, my character certificate can testify my life as a clean one, and one that's been up to society's norms. I hereby present my case to you as an eligible parent to take care of a child in every possible way including providing shelter, food, education, as well as a good lifestyle.
I hope that you will consider this letter. Thanking you in anticipation.
Yours Sincerely,
Katherine Jacob.

Respected Sir,
This is to state that I, Katherine Jacob, on behalf of Chris Kentucky, as his aunt, have known Chris for 39 years now. In all this time, I have never seen any unusual circumstances coming to exist between Chris and his child, Maria Chris. In fact, I have always witnessed a very friendly, loveable, and pure bond between the two of them.
I have seen Chris giving his best towards the personal and social upbringing of his child. I hereby testify that he is eligible for being in charge of the full custody of his daughter. I have no doubt in saying that he will prove himself to be the best parent that Maria could ever get.
I hope that you will look into this matter, and take an affirmative step. Thanking you in anticipation.
Yours sincerely,
Katherine Jacob.
