Divorcing Your Spouse - Not Your Children

Protecting Children During Divorce

We all want what is best for your children. At the Sutton Law Firm, we will work hard to help you reach the best agreements possible regarding your children.

  • Child Custody. Through negotiation or litigation, we will determine a parenting plan. This plan may include a primary and secondary residential parent, but it is not required to do so.
  • Time Sharing. Also known as visitation, a time sharing plan allows your child to spend quality time with both parents.
  • Child Support. We will help you anticipate what to expect based on Florida's Child Support Guidelines along with your time sharing and parenting plans.

In October 2008, the Florida guidelines regarding child custody, time sharing and child support changed. Keeping up to date on Florida family law matters, our legal team will help you understand how the new laws relate to your situation.

Modifying Child Custody, Visitation and Support Plans

Sometimes parents need to request child custody, visitation or support modifications. A parent may wish to relocate. We will explain the legal process and represent you during these proceedings. Depending on your situation, it may be relatively simple or fairly complex to modify the plans established during your divorce. Contact us to schedule a time to discuss your situation.
