Protect my parenting time →Nothing in family law matters more than your relationship with your children. Whether you are negotiating a first parenting plan in a divorce, establishing rights as an unmarried parent, or fighting a relocation, our office treats your time with your kids as the non-negotiable it is.
We are direct about what a judge is likely to do — and relentless about building the strongest version of your parenting case.
The approach
How the firm handles this
-
Build your parenting case
Florida decides time-sharing on the best interests of the child, weighed through twenty statutory factors. We build the record that shows who you actually are as a parent — school runs, doctors, routines, stability.
-
Design the parenting plan
Weekday schedules, holidays, travel, decision-making, communication — a plan specific enough to prevent the next five years of arguments.
-
Protect the plan
If circumstances change or the other parent won’t honor the schedule, we move for modification or enforcement quickly. A plan on paper only matters if it holds in real life.
Common questions
Asked in almost every consultation
Does Florida favor mothers in custody cases?
No. Florida law starts from the position that equal time-sharing is in the child’s best interest, and judges may not favor either parent because of gender. What wins cases is evidence of involvement and stability — which is exactly what we build.
Can my child choose which parent to live with?
A child’s preference is one factor among many, weighed more heavily as the child matures. It never controls the outcome by itself.
Can I move away with my children?
Relocating more than 50 miles for 60+ days requires the other parent’s agreement or a court order. Moving without one is one of the most damaging mistakes a parent can make mid-case — call us before you make any move.
