What is a timesharing plan in Central Florida Family Law?  Recent years have seen changes to the terms we use in Florida divorce and paternity actions.  Divorce is now referred to as Dissolution of Marriage.  We no longer use the terms custody and visitation.  Instead, a Final Judgment of Dissolution of Marriage or a Final Judgment to Establish Paternity must now include a Parenting Plan and a plan for timesharing.

The timesharing plan addresses the specific times the children will spend with each parent.  These plans can vary greatly in their specificity depending on the particular needs of the children.  However, the timesharing plan must always take into account the best interest of the children.  It is important to discuss your particular family situation with your qualified family law divorce and paternity lawyer.  The information you provide will help them develop a timesharing plan that will be in the best interests of both you and your children.

If you are a party to a Central Florida paternity or divorce action and you have questions regarding a timesharing plan any other family law matter, please contact Family Law of Orlando by email or by phoning (407) 835-9900.  We will be happy to schedule an initial consultation with Attorney Wade P. Luther.
