Legal Question in Family Law in Florida

Re: Child custody

It is impossible to tell you where to begin without knowing which state the action should be commenced. Except under certain circumstances, a person must live in a state for a certain period of time before commencing an action. How long ago did you wife go with the kids to FLA?

If it has been too long then you may need to file in FL.

Please call me, Stephen E.S. Daray at 440.835.8200 and we can talk further.

The attorney should practice in the area in which your wife is currently residing. Time is of the essence in filing any action as schools will soon be out throughout Florida.
