St. Petersburg Child Custody Lawyer

Pinellas County Visitation Attorney

If uncontested, negotiating a child custody agreement in Florida does not have to be solely decided by a judge. At the law firm of Christina L. Sandvoss P.A. in St. Petersburg, I help my clients craft parenting, visitation and support agreements that serve the best interests of their children and fall within the Florida statutes.

Florida law has made significant changes since October 1, 2008. Florida has taken out the terms "joint custody," "primary custody" and "physical custody". The state now establishes a parenting plan to resolve issues regarding what was previously termed "custody". Contact my law office for answers to your custody and visitation questions.

Contested Child Custody Cases

Child custody battles can be long and difficult. In deciding which parent will have more timesharing, courts will consider, among other things, the best interests of the child. Some of the questions the court will want to answer include:

• Who has been the primary caregiver?
• Which parent is more likely to be cooperative and provide visitation to the other parent?
• Which parent has a better home and lifestyle to support a child?

As your lawyer, my job will be to present the facts of your case to the court most favorable to you, which will make a ruling based on evidence.
