If you have children, their wellbeing is an important consideration as you make decisions about your divorce. Every family is unique with different circumstances and needs. At our law firm, we will listen to your concerns and help you develop a plan that meets your children's needs.
- Shared parental responsibility: In most divorces, both parents have responsibilities for making decisions that affect the child such as medical care and schooling.
- Primary and secondary custody: In some cases, the parents agree to rotating residency with the child spending equal time in each parent's home. In most divorces, however, children will spend the majority of time in one home with liberal visitation to the second home.
- Domestic violence injunction: When child custody is clouded by allegations of domestic violence, an injunction may already have awarded the home and primary custody to one parent. Talk to your attorney about modifying the injunction so that custody and visitation can be reconsidered.
- Child support: In Florida, child support is determined by a formula that considers the income of both parents. When income cannot be verified and when the income amount is substantial, your lawyer can enlist a forensic CPA to determine income.
- Custody disputes: If the parents cannot agree on custody or when one parent is unfit to have custody or visitation, talk to your family law attorney. Our law firm can fight for you in negotiations or in a courtroom.
