Parenting Plans

A parenting plan is a document that contains the details of the time sharing arrangement. The plan answers specific questions like:

  • Which nights will a child spend at each parent’s home?
  • When exactly will a child go to Mom or Dad’s house on Friday?
  • Who will pick up the child? At what time? At what location?
  • Who will pay for transportation if significant expense is involved?

We can help you petition a court to establish a time sharing plan or change an existing plan if your circumstances have changed.

Custody, Support and the Florida Department of Revenue

The Florida Department of Revenue has become well known for its child support enforcement methods. If you have a child from outside a marriage, you may be paying child support without being able to spend adequate time with your son or daughter. We may be able to help you change this.
