What are the custody laws in Arizona for unmarried parents?

In Arizona, custody laws for unmarried parents are based on the best interests of the child. Both parents have equal rights to custody and visitation, but the court will consider factors such as the relationship between the child and each parent, the ability of each parent to provide for the child's needs, and any history of domestic violence or substance abuse. It is recommended for unmarried parents to create a parenting plan to outline custody and visitation arrangements.
