Standard Visitation or 50/50 prior to court order? by: FALDP Staff
Hi Jason,
I am not an attorney and please do not consider this as legal advice. As far as I know, if there is no court order, parties are still married, both parents have equal rights to see their children. No doubt this can be awkward if you disagree. Also, in general, Florida courts favor shared parental responsibility. Whether the ultimate parenting plan is 50/50, every other weekend, or something in between depends on what is in the best interests of the children. The standard parenting plans published by counties are not meant to be the only possible time-sharing (visitation) arrangement.
