When it comes to family, most people are hard pressed to place anything else higher on their list of priorities. In the event that your family is facing the challenges of a divorce, you need an attorney who will serve as your advocate.
As an experienced Charlotte County family law lawyer, I can help you find the best possible outcome in any of the following legal areas:
- Divorce: As one of the most stressful events a person can encounter, you need someone who can help you navigate the system while you plan for your future.
- Parenting plans, child custody and child support: In Florida, child support is always shared and one can face struggles when dealing with the intricacies of child custody. Parenting plans must be in place and serve the best interests of the child.
- Paternity: If the parents of a child are not married and the relationship is ending, the rights of the father and his relationship with the child are at risk.
- Modifications: Life circumstances can change how we contribute to child support or custody. If you or your co-parent has experienced a significant change in income, a modification may be necessary.
- Property division: Florida is an equitable distribution state. The words equitable and equal are not interchangeable, however. You need a knowledgeable lawyer who will help explore your contributions to the relationship.
- Domestic violence: If your or your child's safety is at risk, a restraining order may be necessary. A lawyer can explain the strategies in place for those who may be experiencing domestic violence.
