Fathers’ rights in Florida

There is a myth that mothers have the upper hand in divorce, child custody and visitationchild supportpaternity, and other cases. That is not true. The law provides a level playing field for both sides. If there is any bias at all, it is in favor of the child. The goal is to do what is in the best interest of the child, and more often than not, that means protecting the child’s relationship with both mother and father. While the law may be unbiased, the players involved may not be; therefore, it is important that if you are a man, you have a skilled fathers’ rights attorney on your side at all times.
