Legal Question in Family Law in Florida

You should file in Florida, since that clearly is the State with closer ties to the child. If you file in Ohio, should "Dad" hire a competent attorney, the case would just end up being dismissed. Then you would have to start over again in Florida.

If you opt to proceed without the assistance of counsel, be aware that you will not be entitled to a �do over� if things go badly.

The above information is provided without any consideration/payment having been received, and without full knowledge of all of the facts.

An internet inquiry is no substitution for an in-office consultation with an attorney.

If your situation falls within the Greater Tampa Bay area, I would be happy to schedule you for a no obligation half hour office consultation. The main office is in Dunedin, with a satellite location in Tampa.

Feel free to Google me.

Good Luck, Elliot Goldstein
