Jacksonville Divorce Attorney BlogAs a Jacksonville Custody Lawyer, I provide advice on helping parents gain custody in Florida. The first bit of advice is to put the child first. Whether the case is a divorce in Jacksonville or a paternity case in Florida, the main ingredient in succeeding in custody, now called time-sharing, is to put the child first. Most courts will require a child custody evaluation to be performed in a custody case in Florida. The main inquiry of the custody evaluation in Florida is to determine which party promotes the child’s best interests before his or her own.
