Many new clients involved in Central Florida custody matters ask what a typical timesharing schedule is. Quite simply, there is no such thing as a typical timesharing schedule. Every family has different responsibilities and needs. The timesharing schedule can be based on the parents’ work schedules, the children’s school and extra-curricular activities, or other factors specific to the daily lives of the family.
The one common factor in all timesharing schedules must always be the best interest of the children. Florida law is clear that this factor must be the dominate consideration in any timesharing agreement. Parents should attempt to work together to craft a timesharing schedule that will meet the needs of their family. When conflict arises and parents can not agree, seeking the advice of an experienced child custody family law attorney will help ensure that the best interests of both you and your children will be protected.
