Understand How Child Time-Sharing In Florida Is Decided And How This Affects Time With Your Kids After Divorce
The Factors Florida Courts Use To Determine A Time-Sharing Plan
While the number one factor considered in Florida time-sharing plans is what is best for the child or children, there are several other issues that the courts look at as well. They include:
How capable each parent is to raise the child or children
The moral, physical and mental health of each parent
How able each parent is to provide for the child or children
How safe the environment is with each parent
Where each parent lives, the physical geography
How willing each parent is to be an active participant in the child’s life
Whether or not there has been any abuse in the home or with either parent
Time-sharing agreements are perhaps the most important facet of a divorce. Attorney Christine S. Cook will take the time to discuss what your child needs, how you can provide and what type of time-sharing plan meets those factors.
Standing Up For The Rights Of Fathers
Today we know, and study after study has shown, that in an overwhelming number of cases, children benefit from having both parents active in their lives. For this reason, Christine S. Cook is proud to advocate on behalf of fathers who may mistakenly believe they don’t have the same rights as mothers. She has experience in a wide array of issues impacting fathers, including establishing or contesting paternity, modifying child support orders, obtaining a fair amount of time with their children and more.
An Attorney Well-Versed In Collaborative Law
Christine S. Cook is also very well-versed in collaborative law and, when this modality suits, will employ this positive, cooperative approach to effectively resolve your time-sharing issue.
