Protecting Your Children’s Best Interests During Divorce

As a parent, you may quickly understand that your divorce does not merely involve just you and your spouse. The divorce will also drastically impact your children, so you want to be sure that you are looking out for their best interests as well. Thankfully, with the help of an experienced family law attorney, you can look after your best interests and your children’s in your divorce.

Here at Law Office of James T. Keenan, we have helped Florida families with their child support and child custody needs for more than 25 years. We know what it takes to both successfully litigate and negotiate on behalf of our clients, and we are prepared for any situation that may arise in their divorce. Child support and child custody needs can be incredibly tricky for several reasons.

Knowing What To Expect

When it comes to child support, many factors can influence the amount a court sets for it. Both spouses’ earning potential and any necessary expenses for the child, such as medical or education needs, can affect the value of child support. We don’t believe child support should be used as a weapon against a spouse; instead, we see it as a necessary tool for your child’s growth.

Child custody is also a significant factor in children’s growth. The amount of time children spend with either parent can impact what kind of an adult they mature into. We want to be sure that a courtroom acknowledges all of the essential details before deciding child custody. We can help with all aspects of child support and custody, such as:

Establishing Paternity
Enforcement of child support
Fathers’ rights
One parent relocating
The rights of grandparents

There is no such thing as a sure thing in any divorce area, which is why our lawyer makes sure we are doing everything possible to benefit you and your children.
