At our family law firm, our clients are our first priority. As a result of recent Florida legislation, the previous terms of "primary residential," "custody,"and "visitation" no longer exists. The term "Timesharing is now used to set out what used to be called visitation and custody arrangements. The thought behind these changes is that except in very limited situations, neither parent should be designated as the primary residential parent. Both parents should be involved in developing a time sharing agreement so that both parties will have a meaningful relationship with their child(ren).

Understanding Child Custody 

Child custody in Florida is divided into two categories: residential custody and parental responsibility. Residential custody reflects with whom the child primarily resides. Sole/Shared Parental Responsibility determines how the child is parented. Our family lawyer, Stephanie G. Morrow & Associates, will help you understand your options and come up with a plan that works for your family:

  • Shared Parental Responsibility: Shared parental responsibility is awarded in the majority of cases. The concept is that both parents should be involved with raising their child(ren). This custody arrangement is awarded where parents can work together in making major decisions in the upbringing of their child(ren).
  • Sole Parental Responsibility: This arrangement is awarded where one of the two parents is unable or unwilling to co-parent.

Time Sharing Plan

It is important for both parents to work together to develop a time sharing plan that protects their parental rights and works for their child(ren).
