Child Custody & Timesharing Attorney in Orlando, FL
Parents Get Equal Consideration
It is the public policy of Florida to ensure children have frequent and continuing visitation with each parent after the parents have separated. Therefore, the father and mother should be given the same consideration when determining custody, visitation, and timesharing, regardless of their child’s age or gender. That’s where the law firm of DeVoe Law Firm comes in in Orlando, FL.
Timesharing Awards are Often Unequal
Although parents are given equal consideration, the court can, and often does give one parent more timesharing than the other. The court determines timesharing and visitation according to a long list of statutory factors. Ultimately, timesharing and visitation may be awarded differently depending on the fitness of a parent, the ability and willingness of a parent to exercise timesharing, and a parent’s ability to encourage a positive relationship with the child’s other parent.
Restrictions on Visitation & Timesharing
In some cases, the court will limit parental responsibility, or even grant sole parental responsibility, if it is in the best interests of the child. The court can also order supervised timesharing and make timesharing contingent on other factors, such as participation in substance abuse programs. If timesharing is contested, your experienced family law attorney can provide you options for parental decision making, visitation, and timesharing that accommodate the unique circumstances in your case.
