Time Sharing Attorney in Jacksonville, FL

Protect Your Right to Visitation with Your Children

Under Florida's law, which became effective on October 1, 2008, the state no longer uses the term "child custody". Instead, divorcing families with minor children are required to adopt a parenting plan. The parenting plan is intended to ensure that the child continues to have frequent and continued contact with both parents after the divorce.

To protect the best interests of both you and your child, do not hesitate to contact a tenacious Jacksonville family law attorney who you can trust to fight for your desirable and just outcome. We handle each family's case in a unique manner to help build a time sharing plan that works for all parties.

Establishing a Parenting Plan

It is Florida's public policy that each minor child maintains contact with both parents after the parents separate, or are divorced. The purpose of this policy is to promote a healthier family relationship in spite of the divorce by having the parents continue to share the responsibilities, privileges and pleasures of raising a child.

A family's parenting plan must include a detailed description of how the parents will share and be involved in the day-to-day duties of raising of their minor child. Included are matters related to time spent with the child by each parent and parental responsibility in regard to:

• Healthcare
• Education
• Extracurricular activities
