Legal Question in Family Law in Florida

I have an eleven year old son that I would like to move out of state with. I was never married to his father and he is not on the birth certificate but I do have paternity papers and he is court ordered to pay child support.He only sees him every other week for about 3-4 hours. What do I need to do to move with my son,legally?
