ChildCustody
When parents separate, questions about custody become the most emotionally charged part of the process. Who will make important decisions about your child’s future? How much time will you each have together? At The Law Office of John P. Sherman, we understand that custody disputes aren’t just legal matters, they’re personal.

How Does Child Custody Work
Florida courts approach custody, legally known as time-sharing, with the child’s best interests as the top priority. Judges evaluate each parent’s ability to provide stability, cooperation, and emotional support before approving a Parenting Plan. Below are key factors that define how custody works in Florida.
