Legal Question in Family Law in Florida

Talk is cheap. See if he actually pursues a change in custody. If he does, in addition to defending against the sought for modification, have your attorney pursue enforcement/contempt. Even if he doesn't try to modify custody, you should still seek to enforce his obligation to provide health insurance. First send him a short but polite letter advising him that he needs to provide health insurance per the prior Order of the Court. Tell him his has 10 days to provide proof of coverage, and if not timely received, you will take this to court. Then do so.

Unless you are actually endangering the child, I doubt the Court would award him "full" custody. In the vast majority of cases shared parental custody is awarded. That is what most people think of as joint custody.

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.

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